Hello, beautiful people, and welcome to our Humbleyboe, the Thunderdown. On this super overreaction Monday, February 9, 2026, this sports program begins now. Football! That was it right there. Uh-huh. Mm. Yep. Yep.

The last football chant of the 2025-2020s season. Yeah. We'll be off starting tomorrow for a couple weeks, but while we're off, what we'll be doing is celebrating the great. football season we have had. We'll also be celebrating the greatest defense we have seen in a long time as we celebrate the Seattle Seahawks is your Super Bowl champions. Congratulations to Mike McDonald, head coach of the Seattle Seahawks, hired a little over 13 months ago as the new era of the Seattle Seahawks shall begin with a man who was a defensive coordinator for Baltimore. But if you go back to like 2013 or something like that, he was an off our defensive assistant for the Georgia Bulldogs. Life wasn't going the way he wanted it to go at the time. He wasn't getting promotions.

He was grinding it out. He wasn't applied to work for KPMG, finance company. Sat in the interviews. He sucks. Let me get back to football. Thank God. He made that decision. What we're witnessing with him is maybe one of the smartest minds we've ever seen with ball.

Now, everybody obviously compliments offensive gurus because it's special. It's the highlights. Hey, this guy's wide ass open. Hey, this offense is able to create this type of leverage in the run game. This guy's a super genius. Let's hire it. This guy? defensive coordinator, head coach, smothering defense,

maybe the best in the history. Their run through the playoffs, absolutely dominant. And it's not just a dominance where it's like, hey, we're kind of let you do some stuff, Ben, but don't break. It's like, no, we are on your ass. And it's normally with just the front four getting home. So the other seven just get to sit back and kind of watch, and all of them are thumpers, all of them are dogs.

Darius J. Butler, nine-year NFL vet, host of everything, D, B, B, B, bad D, here with us, looking good D, D, What are they have in the corner of the team meeting room that Mike McDonald kind of leads? Just a stack of helmets of all the enemies of heads that they're taken throughout the season. We saw a little glimpse of them. I'm not sure what clip or what it was behind the scenes. We saw Mike McDonald's top in the front of the meeting room.

And this is awesome. This is one of the best little props, gimmicks I've seen in a team meeting room. Love everything about this. Yeah, I think this is Mike McDonald's kind of MO. Hey, we're going to be hard asses. And in a post-game interview, whenever he was celebrating with Boomer, Booger and Alex Smith. He mentioned about addressing the team and talking about, hey, I need to become a better public speaker for you guys. And instead of judging his team rallied around him

because they knew they had something special. Sam Donald, seemingly the perfect quarterback for this guy, his revenge tour from going from absolute shite-ass bust in everybody's mind to now a Super Bowl champion and man who will be able to say, hey, they got a statue for me in Seattle forever potentially. Sam Donald change his entire career, changes his entire legacy, changes his entire narrative overnight in Santa Clara, California. And Sam Donald didn't even win the MVP. The run game, Kenneth Walker, who had to share the backfield with Charbonnet,

ends up being the most dominant player. He doesn't even score a touchdown. Their kicker hits five field goals. First time in Super Bowl history that happens in Jason Myers, and we talked to him this year, whenever he beat the Indianapolis Colts. Okay, Phil Rivers, by the way, maybe a little bit more respect to that. Jason Myers goes on to set a Super Bowl record off of his right foot. Not a bad day at the office, I would say.

He goes for 33, 39, 41, 41, 26. All no daughters, even with a little bit of a catch by Michael Dixon, the holder to put that thing up, pure as day. It felt like Jason Myers was incredible. Michael Dixon, the Australian first ever Aussie to win a Super Bowl. Congratulations to him. He was unbelievable, just pinning him. He had a coffin corner late in the game.

Got to get this thing out quick. Let me go ahead and hit a low liner that goes out of bounds. Inside the 10 when no return. I mean, he was special. All facets of this team were spectacular. And I'll tell you what, it makes for a pretty boring game. It makes for a pretty boring game. Drake May, the New England Patriots, absolute ass into the fourth quarter

where he threw for 235 yards. Before that, none. What did they do on offense? Nothing. How did it look? Terrible. What was it kind of doing? I was given a lot of opportunity for people to say,

Cupcake schedule gets this New England Patriots here to the Super Bowl. Bo Nix doesn't get hurt. Are they still here? Buffalo Bills figure out how to not to mess it up and they win it. Are they going to beat the Seattle Seahawks team? I'd like to say, I don't think anybody was going to be beating that Seattle Seahawks defense. I think what that Seattle Seahawks defense proved, just like what the Philadelphia Eagles defense proved last year,

it's like, if you can get home with four and they can wreck the game, you can win anything. You can win the Super Bowl. And the Seattle Seahawks primed and poised to go ahead and do this for the next one, four, five, six. seven, eight, ten, twenty. Is McDonald going to forget how to call defense? Is he going to get worse at leading and speaking to the team?

I don't think so. Or is he only going to get better? Is the coach only going to continue to grow? Schneider, this guy, unbelievable general manager, says Pete Carroll, get out of my face. Pete Carroll came in and said, I want to just talk. I think that's how we went. We can compete, we got to do this, we can do this. Schneider said, sweet, cool.

Can we please get this old man out of here? you had a hell of a run. We appreciate it. Jody Allen, cool seeing her up there celebrate. I know nothing about her. She has no anonymous sources. She has no leaks in her. She is walking key, basically, whenever it comes to ownership. We don't hear nothing. Now, is that because of how far away they are? Potentially. Potentially. But it doesn't feel like they're ever working any angle. So watching her celebrate and give credit to everybody in the 12s, it was like magical night for Seattle. And we might be looking at the next dynasty. We're talking about the Patriots being back to building the dynasty. it's like if this defense is going to continue to do this,

which I think they possibly are, the whole league's in trouble for a while. Let's go to the talks of table at Boston Conner, at Ty Schmidt. Conman, hey, hey, way ahead of schedule. That's right. Way ahead of schedule. Look bad last night. Yeah.

Did not look great through the playoffs. 23 years old. First year head coach reestablishing this. How many days in the entire Mike Vrable era is this, Conman? 307. So what does that mean for you after last night? I assume it was devastating. Patriots fans are used to winning these types of games. Obviously, they thought, hey, we're back.

I watched a video from Vrable and the Patriots team that got me jacked off. Freebird. Holy hell. Yeah. I like us. I like us. Boom, boom. Us against the world.

It was like, yes. Patriots plus four and a half, right play. Then that game started, and you heard Chris Collinsworth say it a few times. I think Chris Collinsworth should always have something to say. Been around a game a long time. You are the color commentator. You're the one that's supposed to say stuff. I appreciate the hell out of you in there.

I thought Tariko called an incredible game. But he was like, if they kick one more field goal when it was 9-0. If they make his thing 12-zip, this one's about as good as over. Yeah. That's how it was literally through the entire first half and even into the third quarter. Fourth quarter, we get some magic that starts happening on the offensive side. But it felt like Seattle's defense was never going to let you guys back in that game. Almost had it back to recover.

But how did you feel watching it? And afterwards, what is the perspective of the Patriots fans? Still a great year or how to schedule? Yeah, no doubt about it. up to the Super Bowl, you're hearing about this defense, and they're comparing it to Legion of Boom, and I basically was thinking like, okay, let's slow down and have them win a Super Bowl first. They did that. They are, in fact, a historic, unbelievable defense. And Mike McDonald, whatever game plan he had for Josh McDaniels, I don't know if he was changing

it, every other drive. I don't think he was. He was just fantastic. I mean, he called damn near a perfect game. You mentioned, you know, Patriots fans being used to winning Super Bowls. When the Patriots were down 12-0, I felt worse about that. than being down 283 to Atlanta. Like that's how kind of suffocating the Seahawks defense seems to be the entire night. And honestly, it was one of those situations where you thought that they were going to get a first down and start to go a little bit. But then I think in the third quarter, one of the things Tariko said, because he did carry it. He mentioned, you know, they haven't gotten a first down since.

Well, Tariko is a weapon, but go ahead. Absolutely love Tariko. Good luck in Italy. But they hadn't gone to first down since the first quarter. You know, there was no kind of hopeful. on the offensive side for the entire night. And then when AJ Barner scores to go up 19-0, that's where it was like, okay, I don't know if we're going to,

if we have the juice to go down and score three touchdowns. But a lot to build on. You mentioned it 307 days into Vrable's era. Second year for Drake May. You know, the sky's falling right now in New England, but personally I feel great about the squad as a whole. And, you know, we'll see where everybody goes and how everything changes. Ty, now, when you talk about lack of star power in this Super Bowl,

I don't know if any stars are really made. Yeah. You know, like Sam Darnold, Mike McDonald, I think. McDonald became a star last night. I think Donald wins, but Kenneth Walker. Didn't win MVP, right. I think like Kenneth Woy, I'm not talking about in the football world. I'm talking about in the universe.

Yeah, yeah. Now, the number is going to be gigantic. There's going to be 100 and... Certainly. 20 plus 130. Last year, 127, we assume it's going to be up to 130. But it didn't feel like if you were outside, what did you take away? McDonald's, the young hotshot coach, potentially?

potentially. Kenneth Walker, unbelievable. Yeah. 161 total yards. No touchdown. Still wins the MVP. That's how awesome he was to watch. Offensive line kind of does their thing. And for the Patriots, it's like Drake May doesn't have his best performance. Defense, I guess, dominant. I don't know.

Like, what do you kind of think, like, the non-football people took away other than San Benito? Man, I wish I understood Spanish. So, me too. Because he put on a whole Broadway. There was like, that was a full. I have no. There's a movie. Was the engagement real?

Probably. Allegedly, yes. No, the wedding was real. There was an engagement early. You're right. So as soon as I'm watching the engagement, I'm like, oh, that's probably real right there. I wonder how they want about getting that to probably happen. Because for those that don't know, I've gotten a chance to understand this bad bunny character a little bit, just strictly because I've realized he's a huge wrestling mark.

Okay. So we also huge wrestling marks. So we know that he's shown anybody that is a wrestling person that gets in our day, it's like, okay, thinking about, the spectacle, thinking about that. He has certainly done that. I mean, this dude did a residency down in Puerto Rico where people were flying in from all over the world. I think he lifted the Puerto Rican tourism thing

like maybe 5,000 percent. I'm not 100% sure because of how popular he is, but he also loves like the show. So him putting together an entire Broadway play, basically, which I assume was an incredible story. Yeah. I assume it was great. Even whenever he climbed up the power things

to tell a part of that story, I feel like he was telling the story of potentially Puerto Rico. Yep. Not 100% sure, but I'm thinking he's, was. As I'm watching and listen and I'm like, I hear, hey,

I understood, hey, I got that one. There was a couple other that I was able to pick up, but I was thinking to myself the entire time, this is probably like really historical and awesome kind of lesson about Puerto Rico. Wish I understood it. Now, I'd like to say or think that we are at the technologically advanced position of society, where that thing should have been

able to be dubbed over to me. Or subtitles, at least. Yeah, because the Spanish subtitle, we know! I tried, yeah. We know that's what that is. And then you go to Spanish subtitle, English subtitle, Spanish, you're kind of getting me here. Yeah. So if I could have heard and understood what was going on, I think I would like them more. But I enjoyed the, I enjoyed the show.

I enjoyed the vibe. I enjoyed the bobs. I enjoyed all that stuff. I had a lot of people that hated me saying, I wish I understood Spanish. Oh, I'm a idiot because I just idiot jock is complaining about. Sorry. I'm from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Not everybody's bilingual.

Okay. I'm so sorry. I took French in high school and in college strictly because we're all taking French for the teacher because we were a big fan of the teacher. And then the teacher ended up hating us more or anything. It was a bad decision. Then it was a bad decision. Now I understand that. I'm sorry.

I've had other stuff going on. I can't just pick up Spanish. It didn't matter. I've tried a lot. I ask Ray Mysterio teach me stuff. I ask Dominic the teacher. I try my best to learn. But on that note, to your point and a lot of people's point, D.

But I mean, that was more. and I have felt or experienced in a long time on TV. And if I would have understood it, I think I would have said the same thing I say now. That was a law effort, good show, great vibes. I do wish I could have understood it a little bit. For sure. The show was unbelievable in me, I guess, being from South Florida

and it being such a melting pot down there, there's people from all over different parts of America. There are parts of America that aren't that type of melting pots. But hearing it, obviously I heard it a lot more. My youngest daughter, she's half Puerto Rican, and so her family had a whole thing that just loved all the stories that were being told. Not only about Puerto Rico. Is that what it was?

It was definitely a lot of stories. A lot of his life. Things that, you know, because for me, that's not a show that's for me, but I can respect and appreciate him putting on for his culture and telling all those stories. Not only for Puerto Rico, but for Latin America, obviously the power grid thing. That was part of, you know, the hurricane that they've kind of still been struggling to get their full power grid back. But it was just an unbelievable, I think, storytelling.

I think the visuals, and to your point, like, I mean, I am on a 230-day streak on Duolingo, but I don't speak Spanish either. But I can-congrat-on-your-street. Thank you. And the visual of it, you know, the, I know a lot of people are mad about this much of it, about half a second. But, yeah, it was a lot of, very pleasant on the eyes for most of it. A lot of dancing, a lot of good vibe. Ricky Martin.

Dude. I need a cup of life out of him right now. Come on. Here we go. Holy! Then I could have... Here we go. Gasolina was only for three seconds

if we would have got some more gasoline. Another banger. I thought we were going straight into full get, didn't you think? Yeah. I was pumped. And I saw Ricky and I thought we were getting living in the Vila Loca.

Yeah, nailed it. Or a cup of life. But on that note, I miss Ricky. I was an incredible show. Yeah. Incredible vibes. People were going to be pissed regardless.

Oh, yeah. They were pissed at me, too, because I did like it. And so they were pissed at me, too, because I did like it. And so they were pissed you because you wish you understood Spanish. They were pissed at me. I never said I didn't like it. Oh, well, I said I liked it. So I loved it, killed it.

And boy, people hated that. That's not real. Those people aren't real. Those people aren't real. They can't be. Honestly, there's going to be 100 and what million we think? 30 plus. Yeah.

Okay. So, I mean, we've experienced this at a much smaller level, much, much, much, much, much, much. Much smaller level. The more people that see you, like, the more people that are going to hate you, you know. Like, more people see you, more people like you. hopefully that's kind of the business more people are like hey i kind of that's kind of my shit or people like i hate this person and there's people that get hate views obviously and they love that and then there's just people that just like hate people the more people that are there i think

there's going to be a group of people that hate that you know no matter what i will say lady gaga did not expect to see her pop up out of nowhere no pop up out of nowhere kind of seemingly that the human trees smart idea sweet could you imagine trying to move all those trees yeah you're right right That was the only way to do it. Only way to do it is we need humans to be trees. Hey, you guys got to rehearse. You got to do it because we need you in. We need you out.

We don't have time to be stuck. Who's grabbing trees? We don't have time to do that. Need you to be able to move? Because I thought maybe there was going to be something with the trees at some point because the humans were in there. But instead it was like, no, just moving sets. That's the only way we can really do this. How many of them are?

How are we? We're just going to go ahead and do that. Smart. Once again. Oh, yeah. Because it felt like he was in different sets. Yeah. It really did feel like he was at different sets.

And then how about we talk about the Ball security? You got to talk about the ball security. Great, ball security. Good spike. Kind tight, yeah. Yeah, great spike was good. Better spike than I expected. Thought that was going to be a lot of elbow.

He's an athlete. Elbow with wrist. Instead, no, actual spike. I was pretty impressed by that. Let's go pregame. Flyover was sick. Unbelievable. Flyover was absolutely sick.

I thought that was coming from the clouds, you know, the handheld. This guy got great shot. Guy or girl, I don't know who it is, doing the handheld, you know, the operator. I think they cut them a little bit. Not going to judge too hard, but unbelievable stuff as you get them coming out of the clouds.

Right back to Charlie Puth, who's incredibly talented, with then the sole fighter coming after. I mean, it was a, that was a beautiful little series there to kind of set the entire stage. Shout to the fans.

Normally super corporate event. You know, usually like super duper. This is an incredible shot too. Hey, boy. Hey, boys. Yeah. Yep. How you doing? Yeah, we just did that shit.

We couldn't see it, but we know it probably looked awesome. I just think they did a good. job. I think the show was done well. And then, you know, halftime going to get talked about, end of game, Tarico transitioning. Oh yeah, Chris Pratt, John Bon Jovi. Great job, boys. He did it. John Bon Jovi did have a little note in there. Oh, yeah. You know, and then Chris Pratt just said, let me go ahead and just hammer this. You know what we're here for. Let's go ahead and get after it. I respect that and appreciate that. I thought it was a good game. Lacked star

power, lacked explosives for a while. But I just think like all of it was, it did feel big as it was going on. Yeah, to your point, you could kind of hear. Commercials kind of ass. So what's going on with, so, so, so they're finding dogs? Apparently. What else? I mean, let's going on. Is this the Batman

basement? You know, where he walks in there and they say, Alfred, yeah. That's basically what they're, hey, everybody, happy you're all here. Let us explain to you what's been going on here. Is that one of those things that you signed in the agreement that no one's reading? You scroll to the bottom and click, yeah, you could use my camera for whatever you

want probably it's fascinating because obviously you know people go door to door whenever they're looking for footage that dateline yeah date line you watch these uh detectives go we get this camera from bababada ba ba ba ba ba ba blah blah that commercial told me i i don't know if i saw it properly told me it's like hey listen you just tell us what you need yep nobody likes losing a dog what kind of i think that's what it said no they're finding dogs no oh hey families are happy i mean There is certainly, these dogs are back with their family. They're tapping into every ring camera they can. Just what, you'll see it.

You'll see it. You'll see it. They're boom, boom, boom. That's the Batman thing. That's the Batman basement. Exactly. At least now they pick that to say like, yeah. Girl was happy.

We're doing it. Yeah, it's happy. Okay, so I guess that's good. This was a takeaway from me. I will say this was one takeaway from me. Oh, Foxy just said. Hmm. And that's no BS, baby.

Oh, yeah. Hey, coach. Where to go, BA. I like that. Good idea, too. Encourage me. I got influenced by it. I'm like, yeah, actually, I am going to check because it feels like it's something that is affecting a lot of us a lot younger than any of us could imagine. And also

in our direct group, it's like, hey, this is a very real thing. Shout to BA doing his acting gig. And seemingly nailing. Even like, serene. You know, when he looked over in the seat, I'm like, BA. That's no BS, baby, for a good cause and getting a chance. Duncan brought it as well towards the end there.

They just played the nostalgia track and just hit all those bases with Ben Affle. like being a goodwill Duncan, I believe, was the name. And they brought out, you know, the old friends crew. Yeah, here there's Joey Triviani. I believe Family Matters. A couple of those people. Steve Urkel.

Yeah, there is Steve Urkel. This one, I thought, also fantastic. Duncan typically does, though, bring the heat. And the other one was the Mr. Beast million dollar giveaway thing. Puzzle. Yeah, puzzle. I thought that was really cool. And they're still doing that, too.

I think he tweeted that nobody has solved the puzzle or whatever. I think I missed that in real time. I saw him walk. And then I think I missed the puzzle. real time. Can we figure that out? What type of puzzle is it? So it's like there, I think there's four videos out right now, and you just watch each video and there's something wrong with each video, and that's how you kind of decipher the code, and then you send it to them on Slack or something in order to submit your answer to win the

million dollars. I'll tell you what, Mr. Bees has got it. Hey, we got this, we got Slack, we got this, go ahead and do that. We'll go ahead and pull from here. Let me go ahead and get this thing operated. If we pull it off, though, should be pretty big. Congrats, Mr. Bees. Yeah. This guy, since he's like a tip. teenager, this dude right here, since he's like a teenager, one of these super duper thinkers. Yeah, was the streaker a part of it was my question. So, streaker is pretty jocked, man. Yeah, pretty jocked, man.

I guess he's the owner of the company that he was marketing on his chest and back. So kind of a little, obviously, I appreciate the fact that Toriko said, a real rocket scientist piece of basically what he wanted to say, but he's Tariko is streaking out here. And that is certainly true. and Williams chasing them down and potentially hitting him with one a age. I think was certainly fascinating because as players and coaches, and I know this is never really the thought because it's always like, and then the security people kind of get thrown,

it's like a part of a game. For some players and coaches, you know, I'm not saying where they came from, but some situations where people are just sprinting at them that they're definitely not supposed to be, there are some uncomfortable feelings by people, especially on a football field. So we've seen situations in the past where players or coaches have been like,

absolutely not. You have no idea if there's a knife. You have no idea. What's the messaging? You don't know. You literally have no idea in the world that we're in. So I think that is why Williams immediately was like, I've been planning for this day. Yeah. You know?

Like, who knows who this person is? So that's seemingly jacked man. Hit him with an okey dog. Yeah, pretty good run. Kind of went down, allegedly his own company. I mean, filming it on his Oakley Meadows. Okay. So he's going to have the shot and probably break down why he chose to juke this particular

out shape looking one as opposed to going at this one so pretty good little football game part of a game the streaker have ever been a part of a game with your super bowl did you have on your super bowl? Nope I don't think so have you I don't think so either I think we would remember right squirrel yeah squirrel yeah had a couple of those like seemingly had like a black cat too I think oh I don't remember that one I think multiple times I think right didn't the yeah for the rats yeah yeah so I think I had black cat scored too I think I had black cat scored two I think I don't remember that one I think I had touchdown and MetLife I was there for. Pretty good.

Everybody just standing there literally like, go on. He's at the 10, okay, sick. Squirrel, I think we've been, I've been a part of a squirrel. Never streaker, though. That one, there was one that had a smoke, like a... Yeah, against the Rams. Yeah, San Francisco. What's that?

Pink smoke? Yeah, yeah. Was it Bobby Wagner that got? Yeah, Bill's Rams season opener. Yeah, but so I think that the reason why Toriko talks the way he does about it, and other people are just like, yeah, this is a streaker. It's like, you have no idea. No idea.

Yeah, and now, granted, did they get check coming in? You assume, but, I mean, people got interesting ways of doing stuff. Yeah, that's right. Yeah. And people are willing to do stuff. It's like never can be too safe. And I would like to reiterate the fact, San Francisco was good to us out there. Had a lot of people started talking about that whole thing.

It's the same thing. Yeah, it is. A lot of people talk about that whole thing. Hey, it's a nice city. We've been walking around here miles. I mean, we... A lot. People are talking.

I had a lot of people, I believe, representing the right-wing, of the political sphere, quote tweeting or video and saying, oh, you're not nice, Mr. Private Playing Guy who gets security into his hotel that is a five-star thing and then gets driven to the backstage of a convention center. Yeah, I bet it is nice. It's like, hold on now. I understand that that could be my life. And that sounds pretty sick, actually.

That sounds, but I'm not there yet. We walk that shit. I'm in the page. I mean, we were all over that place. And even on the maps, it says, like, moderate incline. It's like, that's a lie. San Francisco, especially if you live in Indiana. We're putting in steps.

I mean, we were all around. Now, granted, it was just our area. San Francisco very, very wide. I assume there was shitty areas. I mean, it is a city. I think that kind of happens in most cities. I think we even have some areas that are, like, not great. But the part we were at was very nice.

And then, you know, there were some people that immediately attacked me for saying it was nice. Because, this guy's been brainwashed by the right. This guy thinks San Francisco is like, you think. think that that is what everything we had heard coming out, including what the mayor had to say of like three years ago, four years ago was like that city was down and out. And we would like say from our experience, seemingly very, we were not there when it was Donna. Nope. No. We're not there when it was down there. We were just there this past week. We went to Stanford. Okay. We were there in San Francisco for a morning. We did a show down there. We've never really been

in done San Francisco. It was nice to us. I think Super Bowl would say it was a success. People may not know when we say walk like those are like 15 20 like 15 20 minute bops like oh yeah downtown and you know most major cities downtown areas you're going to have some sketchy parts some sketchy pockets obviously you know you're going to run it to some unsavory savory characters but yeah it was and not the weather the weather's certain oh it was crispy perfect but yeah the city the city from our uh it was very from our perspective now there's people that say you don't think you dip shit, they just cleaned it up because you all were coming to town. Maybe. What do you think? Maybe. They did a great job.

Yeah. And if it stays this way, it'll be incredible. If it goes back to being a dump the next time we're there, guess what we'll do. We'll say it. We'll tell you. That's right. Was actually planning on leading off the show, if it was saying, this place is a shithole. Yeah. I was planning on it. Do you remember that? Oh, yeah. Can't wait to have to tell the truth about San Francisco if it is not great because we're getting reports from people. I don't say both political parties, but center and, and, and, and, on the, and, and, One side telling us directly not great. And then a little bit on this side saying,

it used to be very, think it's better. It's like, okay, so we had no idea what to do. Excited to tell the truth about it. Like, that's why I think this whole shit's for. And, yeah, it was great to us. It was great to us. And the mayor had a little jumper. He did.

It was cool. Mayor, one at east. Bang, bang. Yeah. One at east, which I appreciate. Oh, yeah. I guess Steph Curry's been in the area. True.

Yeah. No, yeah, certainly. Let's go to one half of the hammer. Cowboys AP tone. When it comes to the gombling, when it comes to what happened last night. Obviously under hits, which is not good for the public, I would assume, because public loves overs to hit in that entire thing.

And then Seattle Seahawks cover with ease. And they were the 71% of the public bet at one point, then down to 60-some percent. They were the odds-on favorite and also the public favorite this entire time. How do you think the sports books did? And how did most people do throughout this season? Did we get our asses beat this year by the sports books? Or how do we kind of feel?

I'll start right there because it has been a lot. a long season. So, you know, we, we tend to forget things. The public got their asses beat this year. What was it? When we were going through the season, and we did this every Monday or Tuesday, I think there was like two or three winning weekends. But the playoffs got better. And then obviously in the Super Bowl, things got better for the public. If you were on the Seahawks, which majority was, it started at 75 percent. By the time we got off the air on Friday, it was down to like 65 percent. I think it ended somewhere around there. So the public won on the Seahawks side. Obviously, they got the money line. They got the cover there.

the under, which was a dead nuts under the whole game, almost went over if Kenneth Walker's touchdown did not get called back there. So they got the under there. Then obviously, if you took anything on the defensive side for Seattle, whether it be interception or sacks or whatever touchdown, all of those hits. I went three and one first quarter under. Drake May over passing yards, AJ Barner under a half yard. And then I lost Sam Darnold over his passing because he didn't really have to throw. Obviously, first touchdown of the game was another one. Another, if you didn't see on, if you didn't

see on the show. Sports Rage had A.J. Barner first touchdown. That hit again. It was I would say it was a good night for the books because, you know, JSN got hurt. He was out a bunch of Ronday Stevenson did get the touchdown but didn't go over his numbers. I would say good night for the books

in general. Yeah, I will say anytime an underhits in a big time game, you know, that's going to be good for the books. And that felt like a lock early, but then they almost caught it. Almost. Oh, yeah. That fourth quarter, Drake May. Does that give you hope? Okay, because this is kind of

my takeaway. There was a sentiment like, hey, playoffs come, Drake May, they didn't play good. We were on the side of like, those tough situations. You got the one defense. And then somehow, again, the number one defense. And then, oh, yeah, a better number one defense. So, like, he did hit, like, a murderer's row of defenses and playoffs, but I think you're going to.

Like, that's kind of what it's going to be. So some people, maybe, say, big moment, big brights. Big My Lights, North Carolina, never really had to play in those types of games. He can't do it. I don't think that's the case. I would like to argue that I think it is a 23-year-old quarterback who hasn't seen a lot of defenses that he can pull from. And then he's getting tasked with taking on maybe the best defense in a league, maybe the best defense in a league, maybe the best defense ever,

whenever it's all said and done depending upon how their little dynasty, not little, sorry, how this potential dynasty goes with McDonald's in that defense up in Seattle right now. MLB, dark side, you know, mission over bullshit, dark side, we're hanging helmets in the corner there. I think Drake potentially rattled, definitely quick, overthrowing a little bit, not by the moment, but by like a little bit of intimidation potentially by he doesn't know what the hell is going on. Remember, and I don't want to tie us back to Sam Donald because he just won a Super Bowl, but he's rude. But there was a point in Sam Donald's career where he's, I'm seeing ghosts. Yeah.

Okay? And that's, I don't think he's the only quarterback that's ever thought that. And that can certainly affect you. him through this playoffs with what he's had to deal with defensively and then in a Super Bowl with what he's had to deal with the Seahawks without a lot of good protection but him also being pretty reckless with it all what is your kind of thoughts on Drake May as a whole as we go into next year is he made man at this point in your eyes no definitely not a made man he had a great

second year almost won the MVP but he still has I think really good pieces around him and why I had so much confidence in him going into this game was because of Josh McDaniels still been there and then Mike Vrable still been a great head coach. So he has good pieces around him. This will be a learning, a learning experience for him, for sure. We saw a little miced up on the sideline in the weather against the Broncos and the FC Championship where he's like, hey, man, this is hard.

And once you get to the playoffs and you play these teams, you're playing the best of the best. Are you talking about Denver, Mo Sachs, talk about Houston, historically great. Then you get Seattle. And on the offensive side with the Seattle Seahawks, didn't turn the ball over this whole playoff run. So with that defense, you're almost never going to beat him. But yeah, with no protection. And then when he did have opportunities to hit some throws,

throws that he hit all year, he didn't. He missed some layups. And that's just part of it. He didn't play his best ball. He'll learn from it, I think. I think he'll probably use his legs a little more in these situations, not only just from him, from the coaching standpoint as well. But this team, this defense, like we talked about Snyder earlier,

just studs on every level. And then their head coach, Mike McDonnell, he's unbelievable when it comes to dial it up. Yeah, and to your point, like the good pieces, you mentioned coaches. Like they need good pieces on, you know, the outside and the inside where it's like, hey, it doesn't matter what they're in. We're just going to throw it here and they're going to be open.

He's going to have a chance. Like there was never a point. Stefan Diggs was their number one this year. He had his worst game yesterday. And that was shocking. It felt like to everybody. And I don't know what the plan was going into it, but it felt like at some point they had to either scrap it or go a different way.

And they just could never get anything going no matter what. It couldn't run the ball. What's that? They couldn't run the ball. Yeah, Seahawks were just so good. It's four, right? I mean, McDonald came out and said, if you can stop the run with split safeties back there, you're in a good spot.

Yep. What does that mean? So it basically means, you know, you don't have to put eight in the box. You hear that term a lot, eight men in the box, and that basically means you go from a too high safety look, and then you go to a single high safety look, which means you bring one of those safeties from the deep part of the field, and now they have to get down there closer to the line of scrimmage to stop the run game.

But when you can just stay in that quarters type too high defense, first of all, for the quarterback, it confuses a lot more things coverage-wise, Because when you are a single high, you're one-on-one on the outside, you know you're one-on-one. But when you have those two safe, and you can just trust your front seven to stop that run. And they did, and you put them in a situation when they have to drop back and pass the ball, it's going to be tough sledding. That second pick, I think Drake, middle of it was like, oh, shit. Like, I think that was, I didn't expect, there was four guys there. Yes.

You know, and that's because the second where he threw it in a touchdown. He had a Mac Collins throw that was a completion. Right before the touchdown. It was filth. Unbelievable. Then the drop in the bucket. But then there was one he threw in a double coverage with the two crossers right in the middle of the field. To end the game, basically, yeah, right here.

I think he was in the middle of that and go, oh, no. Oh, it's okay, yeah. Yeah, because they show a close-up of his face whenever he throws it. And I legitimately think he goes, oh, no, as he's throwing that, because there's so many people back there, because they don't want, there's nobody up. Yeah. So, like, there's more people in coverage. And that's what the Eagles were able to do last year when they don't do the Chiefs.

And now the Seahawks just did the same damn thing against the Patriots. I have not lost faith in Drake May. I think all these things are him to learn from. Okay, lightbox me. probably there has to be human somewhere. If he's not here, he's probably here. All these things are good for Drake, even though in the moment it had to suck,

and he got choked up last night afterwards. And you could see, just by the way, he was sitting in his build and his face, it's like, this guy's so young. Oh, yeah. His guy is just so damn young out there. You know, it was a huge difference, and I did not see this coming.

Sam Dornan had a lot of pressure, too. Milton Williams was just dominating their right guard. Sam was unbelievable in the pocket of getting out of the pressure and missing and avoiding and then making plays. and Drake was not in that sense last night. He sat there a lot, took sacks where maybe he could have run or whatever. But I think a big difference was that Sam was so good at avoiding those sacks and Drake was not.

Sam was running one to the right and cut up. Yeah, he was like, ooh! Sam Darnel! Joining us now, ladies and gentlemen is senior NFL insider for ESPN. Shout to ESPN, by the way, hosting the next Super Bowl should be an absolute blast. Ladies and gentlemen, I'm Shephton. Hey, Jay! Oh, you're going to Augusta.

Good to see you. I'm still in the green room. Am I allowed to leave here Friday? I got here 9 a.m. Friday morning. I'm waiting to leave here. I haven't gotten your clearance yet. Am I allowed to go yet or not? What all happened?

So I do apologize. I wanted you to join us live so that we can thank you for the season that was. You showed up for us every time we needed you. And then one thing led to another, people got stacked. I heard you were back there potentially holding court a little bit. Heard you met some people and everything like that. And then whenever I go back for the next break, I'm like, is chef to hear there?

No, he had to leave? I'm like, got it, got it, got it. We apologize there for that. I want to let you know that. All good. All good. All good. I just left there five minutes ago.

Time to go catch a flight home. All right. Yeah, I understand. I get it, too. We knew there was going to be a little something, as there should have been. Okay, let's chitch out a little bit about said Super Bowl, and then we'll move to off-season storylines because Max Crosby is going to be a huge part of that entire thing. A big storyline coming out of last night is that the Seattle Seahawks defense might be legendary yet again.

that the Patriots are potentially in a spot where they're going to be okay? What are your thoughts? What are you hearing around Super Bowl 10 about how the game actually went last night? Well, I think the Seahawks defense cemented itself as one of the great defenses of all time. I still like the Bears and the Ravens all-time defenses. But this Seahawks defense last night, they got so much pressure on Drake May. To me, they go down with the Denver Broncos team that won in 2015. They go down with the Legion of Boom team that won a Super Bowl.

almost won two. They're in that upper echelon of defenses. They gave New England nothing last night. But to me, the story of this postseason and this Super Bowl, people will always remember it as the time in which Sam Darnold overcame everything that he did to go from seeing ghosts in New York to seeing his reflection in the Vince Lombardi trophy to bouncing around the league from New York to Carolina, San Francisco to Minnesota to finally winning a Super Bowl in Seattle. five teams. Nobody's ever done that before, starting and winning. It's just an amazing journey to get to where he wound up. And he's deserving of it. He obviously played a great postseason. He did not have a turnover all postseason long, which during the season, they were second in the league, second in the league. Most turnovers behind only Minnesota. And then they play clean, flawless football in the postseason. San Donald did a tremendous job. And I think people always remember that. It's amazing. He's in that draft class, 2018, that produced Baker Mayfield and Josh Allen and

Lamar Jackson. And he's the first quarterback in that draft class to win the Super Bowl. And him and Josh Allen are very, very close. And as much as Josh Allen would love to reach and win a Super Bowl, I'm sure he's incredibly happy for his good friend Sam Donald for winning Super Bowl 60 last night. Yeah, and people are going to hold Sam Donald over Josh Allen's head for the rest of his career until he wins Super Bowl with how this whole thing is gone and how we judge post seasons. Lamar as well and Baker, congrats to Sam on that. Feels like he's a perfect fit for McDonald in Seattle.

Let's talk about McDonald. When he got hired to Seattle, I think we expected him to get a head coaching job, but we didn't know much about him. He wasn't at Baltimore for long. I think he was in college before that becomes a DC over there. Crush. I think he starts slow.

I think it wasn't good early. Like maybe very, very bad early. Then he figures it out quickly, turns Baltimore in the defense that we remember. member from the Baltimore Ravens, gets a head coaching job. We all just assume it's going to take place. But because he's a defensive guy, we don't know much about him. He's certainly unique, I think, whatever he talks, how he talks, how he acts.

But his team is unbelievable. Can you tell me a little bit about McDonald and why everybody knew he was going to be a good head coach and kind of where he thinks he's headed? First of all, you're talking about a very cerebral guy, really intelligent, really soft-spoken, really quiet, and really a really good guy. I don't know that there's been a hey coach this successful. He's the third youngest coach in history to win a Super Bowl, joining Mike Tomlin and Shaw McVeigh,

which is the kind of company that he's now keeping to win that Super Bowl. And when he was coming out, he interviewed in a bunch of places. He interviewed in Carolina. He interviewed in Washington. Seattle was one of his last interviews. And the interesting thing was the Washington commanders at a high level of interest in hiring him. And his wife, Stephanie, was a cheerleader

for the Washington football team. And Stephanie's family is from that area. So you would have thought, no-brainer, wife's from the Washington area, wife worked for the Washington football team, like that's where he's going. And even when he was out in Seattle, visiting, the commanders got him on the phone

and made one last ditch effort to try to get him to come back to Washington from Seattle, Washington, where it is visiting. But in the end, the amazing part about it was, to me, he chose to take his wife and move across the country. And Seattle was my very first job out of college. Like, it's a great city. It's a beautiful city.

It is a faraway city. Like, you can get to Europe quicker than you can get to Seattle. And Mike went there because the main reason was he believed in the general manager John Schneider. He just trusted and believed in him, felt like that was the right guy for him, and John Schneider rewarded his efforts, because if you look

at what they've done, they trade Russell Wilson in that trade that nets them amongst other things in that trade, Charles Cross, boyet, Maffei, Devin Witherspoon, all the players that they got in that Russell Wilson trade. And so

to me, Russell Wilson helped Seattle win its first Super Bowl, and Russell Wilson and helps Seattle win its second Super Bowl yesterday. And John Schneider pushed all the right buttons. Like, if we go back to last offseason two, Gino, they wanted to keep Gino Smith. They wanted to keep him. Gino was the one who wanted out.

And when Gino wanted out, well, then they traded him to the Raiders and pivoted to Sam Donald, another great John Schneider move. So Mike McDonald goes to Seattle because of John Schneider. John Schneider rewards him for his commitment. And now together, they win a Super Bowl. together last night in San Francisco. That's a hell of a play by John Schneider.

All the decisions he made pissed a lot of people off throughout all of it. You know, moving on from Gina, moving on from Pete, moving on from D.K., moving on from a lot of people. I mean, he even go back to, I guess, whenever he moved on from the Legion of Boom and built on with Russell Wilson. He's made a lot of decisions where he has taken a lot of shots to the shins. So for him to get to the point where he's the only guy ever to win multiple Super Bowls in the same organization

with a completely different team and head coach it's like the amount of fires that he had to be in, especially in the world that we're in right now where everybody wants everybody's ass if it isn't a Super Bowl, isn't a Super Bowl, isn't a Super Bowl? So for him to get a chance to feel the confetti again, I assume was pretty gratifying. I assume there was some real moments of fulfillment

there for Schneider, Shefti, I would assume. And listen, when you win a Super Bowl like that, usually it's because your owners are great, usually because your GM's making the right calls, usually because your head coach is a stud and your quarterback is really good. Like those are the starting building blocks. Now, Seattle had an exceptional defense, and that was the key to the win last night. But John Schneider did make all the right moves from hiring Mike McDonald, lowering him away

from Washington, which wanted to hire him, and then going out and making the move a quarterback. Like, that's a dramatic move last year at the quarterback position. And again, I don't think that was plan A. That was probably plan B, but it was a great plan B, and it worked out as well as it could have for John Schneider. And all the moves that they made, that defense is just fast, strong, built to last. Now, here's the other thing. They've got some major decisions to make this offseason

because they're going to have Jackson, Smith, and Jigba, eligible for a new deal for the first time. He's going to want a new contract. Devin Witherspoon is eligible for a new deal for the first time. he's going to want a new contract. You're going to have those issues at a time where you have other free agents, players whose contracts are up like Kenneth Walker

with Zach Charbonnet out with a torn ACL. So they have to solidify that backflow. And Clint Kubiak is taking the head coaching job with the Raiders. On that note, you've got to have a third different offensive coordinator in three years. On that note, Ty has a question for you. Yeah, Shepty, is there any idea who the next OC of the Seahawks will be? I mean, I know the game just ended last night,

but like is Kubiak going to take a lot of that offensive staff with him to Las Vegas? Is there any kind of name that you can think of or what's that process going to be like naming a new offensive coordinator? Yeah, they have on their staff a quarterbacks coach by the name of Andrew Janaco. And I think Andrew Janocko is going to be an offensive coordinator, whether that's with Clint Kubiak in Las Vegas or whether he stays on in Seattle to become an assistant. Michael Burns spent the 20-24 season with Kubiak in New Orleans. I would imagine he might go. The run-game coordinator, Rick Denison,

and run-game specialist Justin Otten. They have a history with Kubiak. Look, I don't know exactly how it's going to break down and how it'll work out, but he's going to take a couple of people with them, I'm sure. And there's going to be a little bit of discussions who stays and who goes. And he's going to have to build a staff in Seattle. It's going to have to rebuild its offensive staff. We assume they'll be able to do it, man.

I just assume they'll be able to do it. I'm in a now, and Seattle Seahawks fans are going to say it's about time. I'm just going to assume they're making the right decisions up there. And I know they have felt that way, but I am going to assume that the Seattle Seahawks are making the right decisions until I'm proven that that is not the case. But being able to just flip an entire culture, paint over some of the walls. Hey, we've got to do a whole new chapter.

Very rarely works. That's why we're seeing in New England, awesome, no matter how this kind of goes. And definitely now, Seattle's Super Bowl champions yet again with an entirely new roster, a whole new locker room, a whole new building, one GM, and an owner who's an absolute beast. I think Jody is a monster. I think she is a great owner. Congrats them all. And their fan base continuing to be in prime time is good for ball as a whole.

So I'm pumped for them. Let's move. Go ahead. Well, one other thing, though, before, I think my colleagues at ESPN reported they would be for sale and that they could fetch a record price. I think they estimated $7 billion. I had somebody in NFL ownership to tell me that they think the C-Ox can get 10. billion dollars, which would become the highest price paid a little bit. 10.

10 billion. That's right. 10 billion dollars. Billion. It'll probably be more than that, too, you know, because Seattle certainly has all that money up there. You know, there's a lot of North Cow area. A lot of people probably want that.

You know, that's good. Multiple people that have a lot of, a shit ton of money. Yeah. Or potentially going to want. Hey, wins the Super Bowl. Twills that. Hey, congrats, Joe, Ireland. Congratulations, if that is the case.

Let's move to some other storylines that are going to obviously take up some of the offseason. Go ahead, Conmay. Yeah, real quick, Seattle not favored to win the division next year. Something to think about as far as how far up they are. But, Shephti, news that we kind of were reading today. Max Crosby told Tom Brady, hey, I'm never going to play for the Raiders again. Is that real? And then also...

Jason Lock on Four, I believe. Okay, Lock on Four is the one who reported that, that they had a conversation. Is Max Crosby forcing his way out? Is he most likely done in Vegas? or is this possibly just the first iteration of the Miles Garrett type thing where he gets a new deal and gets paid a bunch of money? Well, look, I think Max isn't overly thrilled to be there right now. I don't know exactly what he did or didn't say to Tom Brady.

I think there's a feeling around the league that he would like to be traded. And then the question becomes is he actually traded. The Raiders prefer not to trade him. Now it depends how Doug in and how Headstrong Max is here in this particular situation. They just signed him to a contract extension a year ago. Mark Davis always has loved Max Crosby. They've got a new head coach coming in and Clint Kubiak. They're going to have the number and overall pick in the draft.

Fernando Mendoza is going to be a raider. They have $90 million in cap space. And it could be that Max has grown so disenchanted with being there that he absolutely wants to move on. But I think that there may be a window to sit him down and say, look, you can be a big part of this turnaround here. And I know that I know that they've already done that one. Three times, Jeffty.

They've already done it three times. I got it. I know that they would prefer not to trade him. And I know that if they're even going to listen, and I'm sure they probably will wind up listening, I was told it would take a Micah Parsons-type package to even consider dealing Max Crosby. Now, is somebody going to give up all that the Cowboys gave up from Micah Parsons?

I don't know. We'll see. But I think with these situations, he may want out of there, and they may be open to listening to it. There's still some steps that have to unfold here before we know exactly how this will play out. How far into the future? Because the NBA trades like 20, 35 first round picks. How far into the future are the NFL teams allowed to do that? It's funny to say that.

Right now, teams are not allowed to trade draft picks beyond three years. You could only trade up to three years into your fix. Wow. Hey, where'd you go? You have to open a safe in your brain there to find that information? Like, what happened there? You were trying to find that one. You didn't expect that question.

No, I didn't. But the funny thing is I had a conversation with somebody about that this week. And I'm going to tell you right now, there are going to be people in the NFL this offseason that push to have that limit grown to five years. Yeah. So they're going to try to. Fine as well. 20.

The NBA, I think you're about to trade 2075 if you want. You know what? Right now it's three years in the NFL. And this has not been out there at all. So you can put it on your bottom line. There's going to be a push by at least one team this offseason to extend the NFL trade limits from three years of picks to five years of picks. We like that team.

We like that team sacrifice in the future for the good of now. That's right. You know, we'll deal with that later. We can get those things back if we need to. You need us to be ass. We'll pick up some more of these picks if we have to. Don't you worry about that business? I love that action.

I love that movement. Now, that's coming from a team that gave away two number ones for Sauce Guard. Hey, Sauce, excited for you to be back next year. Excited for you to be back next year. But I was trying to think in my head about Max Crosby, okay, so we just need to give 20, 30, 12, 31. That's what we need to just go and give those. But I guess it's not a lot to do that. It might be Ballard, who's pushing it.

Ballard could be. You think I should be allowed not to trade all these things? It's not. What's that? It's not. I mean, he might vote for it. You know, but teams you have to vote on that. but the proposal will not come from the Colts.

Well, they need to co-sign that thing because we don't got a lot in the next three years. We don't have anything. We don't have anything but sauce and our team going super. And I saw Daniel Jones with Fernando Mendoza. That was cool. And it was tweeted, said, Indiana quarterbacks was like, okay, so we signed them.

That's great news. What's his deal worth? I'm excited. I'm very excited for that. You know, we would certainly be pumped up about that. Okay, let's move some other storyline. Shall we speak in a quarterbacks? Go ahead, Tone.

Yeah, Shafty, speaking of veteran quarterbacks. Let's talk about Kirk Cousins, who is rumored to be released and then be able to be a free agent and go wherever he wants. And then Aaron Rogers, there was also report about Aaron Rogers this weekend that he loved his time in Pittsburgh. And the teammates loved him. They spoke about him glowingly in the ex-interviews. I heard that as well. What's the latest on Aaron Rogers? And then also the Vikings potentially bringing in a vet to compete with JJ.

Could that be Kirk? What's the latest on all that? Well, when they had the exit meetings with the Pittsburgh Steelers players, almost to a man, they all wanted Aaron Rogers back. And the one thing that was conveyed to me was how much respect and love there was from other teammates about Aaron Rogers and how much they wanted them back. And the idea at that point in time was to give him about a month, give him some time to think about things, process things. And in that time, they go and hire Mike McCarthy. Now, they didn't hire Mike McCarthy to bring back Aaron Rogers. But I don't think that hurts the situation at all.

anything it helps it. And so obviously, Aaron Rogers has to decide what he wants to do, but I think the Pittsburgh Steelers absolutely would love to have him back and would welcome him back. Kirk Cousins, he's expected to be released. They restructuring his contract with the idea that he would be released. He'll be released before the new league year begins. I think he'd like to play, but he's going to consider all his options. That could include TV, that could include retirement, whatever it is that he wants to do. He'll have the option to doing it, but the Falcons will release him before the start of the new league year. So that'll be an option for him.

And you bring up Minnesota. Yeah, well, Minnesota is always going to bring in a quarterback. Obviously, they have to do that anyway. The question is, who's that going to be? I asked Kirk about Minnesota last week, and I didn't get a no, but I didn't get a yes. It's possible, but there's a lot of things out there that are possible with him. He's got that older couple body gurus. Exactly.

They still live up there. Good fires. Remember, we watched quarterback with him. Up Bear in Minnesota. He seemed to really enjoy his life. Maybe he goes back and says, listen, I was never supposed to leave, but they gave me $80-some million guarantee.

Sorry about it. Have you guys been... Have you guys been... Have you guys been able to? Sam Donald, yeah, I watch that. That was crazy. He's a Super Bowl champion. Hopefully we are in.

That's right. There's a chance that all that happens. We shall see. Okay. And now, because we are on this superhover reaction Monday, all eyes are on the next football season. Offseason storylines in abundance. Who is going to get to the top of Lombardi Mountain?

Can anybody beat the Seattle Seahawks? Those are all storylines that are developing. But what's happening on this day, Dee Butch? What's happening on? You guys do this property, actually. Yes, we do. No, 14! Which way are we going?

Happy handoff day. Happy handoff day. Happy handoff day, Chefty. Happy handoff. Hey, how's good handoff? Good Cater's. Nobody jumped. You good.

That was good. Perfect. Good handoff. Good arm movement. Cards. Yeah, that's just like we're happy handoff day. Happy handoff day. Hey, handoff day.

Happy handoff day, boy. Hold on, Shepty. Hold on. We're leading this one, not you. You got all your talking points. We're doing journalism around here on handoff day. I know it's a long ways away. And obviously, 32 teams want to be there.

But is there any plans that ESPN has that you maybe want to break that we can look forward to an L.A. next year, maybe you already know the halftime performer. Anything you want to break, Shepty. Come on, Shifty. Well, I've seen the NFL. script for next season. It's a doozy. And wait till you see the Super Bowl matchup next year in Los Angeles. I mean, I couldn't

believe when I read the script. I couldn't believe the script. A halftime performance, everything. It's really incredible. So it's going to be a magical year ahead on ESPN and ABC. And the handoff, you carried that ball better than bad bunny there, Pat. That was... Whoa. Good ball security. I would like to say San Benito actually had

Bueno a ball security. I would say, I would say you had good ball scare. So that was a nothing right there. That was a nothing. Come on, Adam. Shifty football. Come on. Shifty feeding conspiracies, this guy. Listen, I'm in L.A. right now.

I'm in L.A. right now. And all I know is the Super Bowl is on February 14th next year, day before President's Day. I think that's the latest the Super Bowl has ever been played. Yep. I said to the people this morning, we're here in L.A. We flew yesterday to get up here this morning, be part of the handoff.

And we might as well just take up residence in L.A. Because this is going to be a huge event for the network. It's going to be a lot of people spend a lot of time here over the next year. A lot. Okay, it sounds good. Sounds like a blessing. I don't think we knew, did we? About the handoff?

I did not. I heard about it on Friday. Yeah, me too. Yeah, we learned about this. We were talking to some of the people from the ESPN NFL crew. You know, yeah, we're on the graphic. I was like, that's sick. What the hell are we talking about?

But like, as we were, I didn't learn. I learned about this from an ESPN NFL on air talent, you know, kind of multiple in a group conversation. Yeah, we're flying to L.A. for the handoff immediately after a Super Bowl. What's that? That's commitment. Excuse me. What's going? The handoff. What's going on?

Oh, we're the handing off because the ESPN Superboard, I'm sure, it's like, oh, sick. When's that happening? And then it's like, cool. And then I see that graphic. I'm like, oh, fuck, we certainly were supposed to know about that. At some point, you would think that we were supposed to be told. It was cool. Scott Van Pelt was out there.

Oh, yeah. I believe NFL Live was out there. Laura, Swagu, Ryan Clark, were out there late 1230, 1231. I saw the graphic. 12.31 o'clock Eastern or something like that. Yeah, it was, they were out there. Disneyland this morning. Yeah.

Look sick. Were you guys, you were at M. Today's studio, right? Forget up? Correct. Yep, that's where we were. Why don't you go to Disneyland? Hey, why did you go to Disneyland? Dude, the terror.

You know, tired of terror. I've been got nine days and I want to go see my dogs and my family. I get that. Might have been why we head out here on Friday. That's on us. We appreciate you guys doing that for the good of the next year's Super Bowl. You're the man, ladies and gentlemen. Great season, dude.

We appreciate you. Hey, I appreciate you guys having me all year long. Honestly, love having, love being. with you guys on Mondays. Always a lot of fun. And I'm just happy that I can leave the green room right now. Thank you. All right, Chef de Coy. Ladies of the gentlemen, Mr. Chairman.

Check, yay. Acting like he was having a terrible time back there. He was. Exactly. Getting numbers. Yeah. Holy shit. Who would have thought? You and me here? Hey, I'm Adam Schaeffey.

His Roller decks grew. Certainly. No more a bit. Yep. I believe there was not only that. I mean, there was also... Some bigger names, I think, too. Whoa, whoa. Maybe not on the end.

Fernanda Mendoza might be a goat out here. But yes, certainly others. And Bill, Bailey McComers is seeing this like, this is like a big moment for Schaefter. Boom. And then all of a sudden you look at the photos and it's like, Schifty just had a happy hour basically in our green room. A lot of handshake and good for him.

But he did leave before we'd get him all the show. Bill's becoming a weapon behind that, Lynn. Yeah, Bailey's good. No, I'm not saying it. What's that? Well, he's good. You know? Yeah.

I've never seen a camera. Yeah, well, bingo. You know, I never even. I'm joking, Bailey. You didn't deserve that. He's been taking a picture. like that for years. We're just seeing them now. Yeah, the...

I didn't know there was a connective device that you can actually... All those years of stock and finally... He's unbelievable cameraman, though. He's a photographer. Yeah. Yeah. Like, actually. Good editor, too. Bailey, yeah, you're kicking ass for us. Bill, we appreciate everybody had a post from a Super Bowl. It was like, oh, Bill's photos. Yeah. You're the man, Bill. And he'll walk right into

a place that's really tight with that camera, too. Hey, how you doing? Hey, go ahead. Look that way. Investing is all about the future. So what do you think is going to happen? Bitcoin is sort of inevitable at this point. I think it would come down to precious metals. I hope we don't go cashless.

I would say land is a safe investment. Technology companies. Solar energy. Robotic pollinators might be a thing. A wrestler to face a robot, that will have to happen. So whatever you think is going to happen in the future, you can invest in it at WealthSimple. Start now at WealthSimple.com.

When McDonald's partnered with Franks Redhot, they said they could put that shit on everything. So that's exactly what McDonald's did. They put it on your McChrispy. They put it in your hot honey macnuggets dip. They even put it in the creamy garlic sauce on your McMuffin. The McDonald's Franks Red Hot menu. They put that shit on everything. Breakfast available until 11 a.m.

At participating Canadian restaurants for a limited time. Frank's Red Hot is a registered trademark of the French's Food Company LLC. is the greatest and I don't want to do it. I know. You don't have to. I got the days if you want to know how long. Talks the table at Boss Corner at Ty Schmidt.

How many days until football kicks off again? Until NFL football, 213 days. Oh my God, that's so many. Holy shit. I think we're at near 200 for college. I don't know if that helps. Like two weeks of a phone by no. Okay.

Okay, that's football stuff. They're wearing underwear, sprinting, running, doing their things. Everybody's there. agency, there's a tampering period. There's the draft obviously happening in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. There's, uh... Owners meeting somewhere in there? Yeah, where they're going to vote on stuff, maybe five years in future trading.

Push push again, probably. Basketball. No. Don't do that. Don't do that. Basketball. Yeah. Unc. Duke.

Yeah. Sick. What a finish. Yeah. Much madness. Two court storms. Yes. Two court storms.

The Olympics are happening. Kind of bored. Yeah. A little bit. Okay, I don't like it. Commentators as well. It came out of nowhere, really. Want to have a hammer.

Cowboys said, I'll be the odds on favor to not know these are happening. Me too. I turn it on TV. I saw something happen. I'm like, are these trials? What's going on right now? They're like, no, this is live. This is for the thing.

I'm like, what a Saturday? This is a nice little addition. And all of a sudden I see Ielia. This guy is. The back flipper? Yeah, and quads. And the quads. But I think the Japanese guy was better.

I was told that nobody could touch Ilya because he's point ranking, like Simone Biles is so damn high that like nobody would be able to catch me. That's a lie. They got a guy. He got caught? Cool. In the team event. Now, we end up winning. Oh, okay. Shout, we got a couple that's married to, by the way, that did he.

They were all. That was unreal. And they're married and they've been doing this a long time, having a moment. You see the hair on the one? Awesome. So we won that. That was sick. That was awesome. The Italian lady went into a speeds getting, I guess she wasn't supposed to there in Italy. That was like when I turned it on. I thought for sure. we were supposed to win those things.

We won gold on the one where Lindsay Vaughn crashed. We just had someone else. Breezy Johnson, incredible name, 20 years old. Very crying in there. Lindsay Vaughn's story, crazy. You know, that was great. Tears ACL. I'm still going to do it.

Does a test run, fast, maybe runs. Like, maybe wins the whole thing on this test run. As a 41-year-old, I think, or whatever. And then her run looks like a little bit of a buckle, and then all of a sudden she's in a helicopter dangling above Italy. That was crazy. Yeah. People pay a lot of money for that.

That was crazy. Not in that particular way. Good tour, though. Yeah, and I hope that she's going to be okay. I don't know if we've got any update. I hope's obviously incredible athlete. But yeah, the Olympics came out of nowhere for all of us, I think, Don, honestly. I think we're still dominating curling.

But no, it's like it was. Yeah. I saw us lose the Great Britain. Oh, shit. Yeah, it was mixed doubles, mixed doubles, mixed doubles, and I think we had a blues of six four or something like that. I just seen another one, though. But there was no palate cleanser between football season and the Olympics.

I feel like we needed a day. Yeah, Tariko, literally doing post. Ghost game. Yep, this is fun, right too. Let me tell you about what happened in Italy earlier today. With the confetti around him. Crazy transition. Incredible motor out of Mike Tarika, who's obviously a stud. We are big fans of his.

And Chris Collinsworth, the Six Super Bowl last night, did his thing. That's Chris Collinsworth football there to a T last night. So him being around the game for so long. And also having to introduce himself to fans that may be as a former NFL wide receiver, he said a couple times. I don't know if that was a resume check for people like Connor, you know,

who had been. I don't need a resume check. him off my TV. Oh! Exactly. I don't know if he was saying that to Connor and other people. I think like, or it was to the people that have never really watched and didn't know, I'm like, hey, I'd like to let you know, I'm a person that did this, so I'm speaking for this perspective.

I think it was great, but yeah, you're right. The Olympics came out of nowhere, but I love hearing that national anthem. I absolutely love it. And the team figure skaters, they got very, they started jump, I mean, in skates, doing the whole thing. Dangerous. They live in the dangerous. Right.

Which is why we should be excited for the next couple weeks watching. USA hockey. When does that stuff? Thursday. Yeah, boom. Thursday, USA hockey. Women's one. Our women's already started.

They're better than everybody. Good sport. It feels like very fast. But on that note, at Darius J. Butler, nine-year NFL veterans. Debutt, basketball going to be good for us this off season? Or you think it's going to be NFL storylines that are going to win today? Because remember, players championship coming up, we might, may, who knows? USA baseball coming up, we might, may, you know, never know.

Combine coming up, we might. May, you never know. There's so draft coming up. We might. May. There's so many things. March, Mad. Yeah, there's so many, we won't.

We'll find him off. Final foreign championship is here, though. Okay. And we might, May. Go to that one. Who knows? There's a lot coming in the office. But it is a tough morning this morning when you wake up and say,

football season is done. It's over. So tough. And then you look in the mirror and you think to yourself, did you properly appreciate this football season. When you were watching that fourth quarter as Drake May was coming alive

and he started seeing some special stuff and Borreale's hits a left-footed back onside kick. It ends up not working, but still, I like a little bit of sauce being played in it. You think yourself, this ain't happening for long. It's 27 days after this. 13.

This morning, 213 days. Sorry about that. So I thought about that. Did you think about that as well? Oh, yeah. I thought about that last night when you see the confetti. Obviously, it's a great season.

It's a great story. for Sam Darnel and the Seahawks and obviously all the other players as well, but it's always tough. But I at least, I'm going to find something to hold on to. NBA basketball playoffs, when the playoffs get going, I do love the NBA. They're saying that league's ass right now. The playoffs were always delivered. And that goes for most sports. They're saying people losing by 20-some on regularly.

NBA playoffs deliver. We got the world baseball class that you mentioned it. And for me, the pinnacle. I mean, I saw my goat, Sir Louis Hamilton, at the time. the Super Bowl with some company as well. But I also saw Cadillat. We talked about hearing the anthem. Maybe we'll be hearing the national anthem

at a couple of F1 tracks this year. We win a couple of Cadillac. They unveiled their livery. Hold on. They run the National Anthem when you win? Yeah. Whoever is the driver. That's the top of the podium. So if Cadillac wins, which we're going through, by the way, we're coming in. Be in Jeddah, can be in

Brazil, can be wherever you are in the country, whoever wins, their national. So not the racers national anthem, the team. Oh, oh. Yeah, let's get an American driver in her. Let's get American driver. I don't think there's an American driver. Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart are the two drivers for Catalysis.

Are they putting Tony Stewart out there? I'll tell you what. Yeah. Tony Stewart and F1 is, okay, let's move along. You watch the F1 movie. That's where we're at right now. We're here right. I didn't watch.

No, that's what I'm saying. If you watch the F1 movie, I think just like me, you're going to give it one shot. Sonny Hayes is our reserve driver. Nice. He may be up. Okay. That's Brad. Yeah. Okay. So I told you guys, don't want to watch it because I don't have the capability to add another thing into I'm interested in.

Agreed. Okay. This is just like, and it felt like it did this to you. It did. There's some movies that come out that really sway people and buy them in. You remember that one where they made everybody vegan? Oh, yeah. You remember when that was happening? Nice to do it.

Hey, watch this documentary. You'll never want to eat meat again. It's like, I fucking like burgers. I am so sorry. I like chicken wings a lot. What? I know it's probably terrible by a lot. A lot of us like to do that, so we apologize. But I had a couple friends and watched that. No more wingies.

Done. Forever. And I'm like, I can't risk. It stuck to it? I don't know. That's a good question. We should follow up. Probably not.

Wings are too good. Way, wait, wait, wait, chickens, too. Bacon? Oh, my. State cooking, bacon. In your underwear. It's the best. Yeah.

You're, yeah. So I won't watch this F1 one because I don't want to get swayed. It seems like it's so awesome. him everybody loves F1 immediately after one. You just do it I did. You watch it. You love it. You enjoy it. You talk about how if Brad Pitt actually drives in this, he'll be the best driver and there's kind of no point. I'm never going to watch

an F1 race. I love the movie. What about the Cadillac? They're right here. Ten minutes away. Not even. Now it's different. If Cadillac team starts winning, then you might hear me saying like, we got the best fucking team in the world. So yeah, that is a possibility. But you didn't get that car in here.

The Cadillac driver does hammer pints. I will say, Is he American? While he's driving? No. He's driving. Yeah. He does it at the same time.

What's his name? What's his name? I just saw him in like a beer promotion on Instagram. I was like, this guy's cool. Clicked on his page. He's a freaking driver. Did you see Joe Montana in the Fandall commercial with a dark beer? Everybody else had a light beer.

That was awesome. That's Joe Montana football. It can only look like Guinness. Well, we're at a bar of sports. Everybody's drinking like Guinness. I don't care. I need Guinness in here. And he was holding it for a different company.

Matt. Vinny. He crushed it in that. as well. Yeah, he did. Vinnie, by the way, great weekend. Yeah,

performance out of Adam Ventry. Better out of Luke Keakley. True brief. Later that showed looked unbelievable. Cannot wait to meet Mr. Roger. Now, joining us, ladies and gentlemen, is a man who was not squatted by the mountain.

But he is a man who's won a Super Bowl championship. He's won a college football national championship. He's a Ryder Cup winner. Ladies and gentlemen, AJ Hawke. Hawker, how you doing, man? I'm doing great. Happy handoff day, guys. I know we all were very aware of that and prepared.

So, yeah, it's good day. Happy hit. Another hit. Another one. Another one. Come on, dude. There we go. You don't want to fumble.

Good hand. Wow. Yeah. Two hands on that thing, then. Yeah. All right, hold it to hold it. Oh, okay. I didn't have your whole.

I got my right hand. I got my right. Okay, down under the table. Sweet. Appreciate it for you doing that. Let's talk about holding on the ball, no turnovers. The Seattle Seahawks offense, zero turnovers all postseason.

First time to do that since 2009 when Drew Brees beat the Indianapolis, Colts and it's true bowl in Miami and which coach had lead at halftime. And then on-site kick started the second half and then Drew Breeze and his baby are into confetti for the rest of their lives. He's now first bow, Hall of Famer. Congrats to him.

And now the Seattle Seahawks potentially, are they lining up to do this again and again and again? AJ, what's your takeaway from the Seattle Seahawks team? Feels like with McDonald there, defense always going to be elite. Sam Donald seemingly never in a better place than in Seattle with the team that has rallied around

them and then special teams perfect. What are your thoughts on the Seattle Seahawks team and what could possibly be now that we know that they can win the Super Bowl? Yeah, I mean, it's an unbelievable season and what they were able to do in this game last night. I mean, Sam using his feet, that was like the X factor. I think that we may not have thought of before this game. He being able to allude like free runners a few times was gigantic too. But I mean, everything they did, the field goes the special teams pinning them down inside the four, five, six yard line multiple times in Witherspoon. This dude, but also, I'm very high, Derek Hall of this guy. I think Will Campbell

kind of got screwed a little bit, trying to get some chip helping. He almost knocked him off you, knocked your guy, knocked him into Drake May. So I don't know if that one's on Will Campbell as much as some other people may have think so. But look at Witherspoon, like, how are you ever going to block that dude? He's running a 4-1, and he's so violent. Like, they just,

their defense is an absolute thing of beauty to watch. Okay, so tell me about being able to get home with 4 and then let alone bringing pressure, and Drake May being 23 years old and thinking to himself, geez, what the hell is going on on the other side of line of scrimmage. Do you think it was more of that or the moment? I think it was Drake May, 23, second year, first year in this system, learning a lot about what NFL defenses can do

throughout this playoff run and saying, holy hell, now we've got to recalibrate in an offseason. I think Drake May will win a Super Bowl. AJ, your thoughts. Yeah, I think he definitely will at some point. He is so young. And he, I mean, what he was up against is something that not many quarterbacks have had to face in a Super Bowl. Like the amount of pressure they're able to get on, like he just was never comfortable. We say it the time like, oh, you got to get a quarterback off the spot, make them feel uncomfortable. Well, that's what this Seattle defense did from like the first snap of the game. Like, they're just absolutely relentless.

And I guess we shouldn't be shocked. Like how many players at Super Bowl at Media Road told us like, hey, this defense is violent. They're coming like the snap of the ball. They are coming downhill. They're penetrating and they get there with bad intentions. I feel we had multiple players tell us that throughout the week. Brock Hardy definitely said that. It was like every single player in D.

but it wasn't just that they're coming with bad intentions. intentions. It's also like a lot of moxie on that Seattle Seahawks defense as well. Yeah, and that's what Brock Purdy talked about. When we hear about defenses, or just players talking in general, I forget who asked them from our show about, you know, shit talking and getting after, obviously, the

toxic table was shit talking to Brock Purdy, but he was like, he was talking about the Seahog's defense and how much just energy they have and how much shit they're kind of talking to each other and having people up and I mean, you can see it. When you turn the tape on, when you're watching on TV, you can see the guys flying around, you can see that they're one of those

defense who was like and AJ you've been a part of this on the sideline like hey who's going to make the next play who's going to make the next play and like on the Patriots when you're playing an offense like that it's almost like all right who's they're taking turns making mistakes so it was tough you know tough slay for drake made with just a phenomenal job I did Seattle Seahawks defense all year long and then played their best you know in the biggest stage yeah a defense is obviously incredible but whenever they have maybe the best punter and ball punting for them whenever the ball needs to be sent the opposite direction what a game what a season I mean, a couple weeks ago hits a ball so high, obviously caused a turnover late,

helps Seattle go on to win. Then in the Super Bowl, you're talking about innovative, courageous punts, not only pinning them deep, but obviously setting the Seattle Seahawks defense up to be historic. Ladies and gentlemen, the first ever Australian-born Super Bowl champion, punter for the Seattle Seahawks. Michael Dixon. What's up, lad? What up?

How are we doing? Congratulations, man. Genuine. Oh, thank you. Okay, because you obviously have been somebody, I think, that a lot of Australians have been inspired by whenever they come over to kick in America, but also American kickers and punters, realizing what's possible with a football. So you getting a chance to experience the flowers,

and then in the biggest game that you've ever had, having one of your best games you've ever had, and I'm saying one of them, I don't know where you would rank it. I think he's special, brother. You're good for the game. You need to know that as a whole, Michael. Oh, yeah, appreciate it. No, it's a blessing. I love being able to help the team out and get the defense rallying around me when I pin it deep.

You know, it's a crazy feeling. Tell me about Jason Myers. Obviously, tell me about your game, your entire special teams group. Feels like McDonald really cares. Feels like there's been real investment. I think they've invested in every asset or aspect of special teams. Can you tell me about the culture a little bit and how they treat the third phase? Yeah, for sure.

Mike definitely prioritizes it, gives us our time. We meet Jay Harbour is a genius and, you know, puts a lot of trust into our guys to execute some of our schemes. And Jay, Mike obviously set in the record and just he's a robot, the attention to details that he has. It's pretty crazy to see. And I'm so happy that he was able to ball out yesterday. Yeah, amen. Here's a stat from Hembo that we got about your entire special teams. We have a special team's efficiency dating back 20 years since 2006.

The Seahawks unit, 75.8 on 0 to 100 score, scored the highest by any Super Bowl champion during that time. Great defense, phenomenal special teams. Don't turn the ball over. It feels like old school football out there. Can you describe McDonald a little bit? Obviously, you're with Pete Carroll for a while. Obviously, you're from Australia, live in Seattle, I think, now for most of your life, as opposed to just down in Texas.

Can you tell me about how life changes when McDonald gets in there as the head coach for you and for the team as a whole. Yeah. So obviously Pete was the oldest, you know, coach in the league when he was here. And then we got Mike and he was the youngest. And Mike came in and he was just himself and genuine. And he came in and told us like, hey, guys, like,

I'm going to do my thing. And I believe in you guys. And it's been so fun to play with him just because, you know, he's so well read and he thinks about every aspect of the game and it's it's been uh it's been so cool and we've learned a lot from from him as as i did with pete a j has a question for you champ yeah yeah yeah michael i guess what about you personally how did you feel yesterday riding to the stadium getting out there pregame did you feel something special in the air that you feel some electricity that your team was gonna gonna find a way to get this win yeah i mean all week the guys were super

chill. We had meetings at the hotel on game day before we headed over, and everyone was chill. So I knew that we were going to come out with some swag and do our thing. And yeah, we did it. I mean, this group is super confident and laid back. We got a pretty young team, and they didn't shy away from the moment. So when you're hitting balls and warmups, you know? Or how long? Have you ever had bad warm up? When was last time you had bad? warm up going into game? No, I don't really have a bad warm. I feel like I'm pretty much just

got my routine down and, yeah, I feel good. Yeah, it looks like it, you put that 51 yards on the sideline. And by the way, having Toriko as the commentator for you, great news. Because early in the, I don't know how much you've heard. Early in the game, Toriko giving you your flowers, like a lot of people saying this guy's best in the league.

I mean, this is what it is. then boom inside the five then you have a backed up punt bang 51 yards on the sideline no return like tariko gives love and also the game was very boring i mean you're talking about like 10 puns and 12 possessions it was like you were the highlight there for a while and tariko was showcasing it you're good for ball man you really are i love it you're going to take to lombardi back to australia we saw robert irwin uh try to tackle an american crocodile on our show i don't know if you saw that he did the american death roll you're going to have to check it out on the fly yeah but i'm Australia hosting game, obviously big deal.

You taking Lombardi back there, and what are your kind of thoughts on Australia getting more invested in the NFL, which we are very pumped for? Oh, I love it. The game's going to be a sellout. There's going to be 100,000 people there. It's going to be the Rams, 49ers.

Hopefully the season after this one, the Seahawks get out there and play in Sydney or something. That would be a dream come true because the game has grown so much. It's been really cool to watch. The lingo, we need. Crikey.

Robbler is. There's another one. In there, there's one word. Hmm. What? That you guys use, you know. It's kind of like what you, it's how many letters. What you do?

How many letters? It's kind of, yeah. It rhymes with what you're maybe the best in the world. Yeah. Yeah. I think I know what you made. Australia, hey, I think it was a cool culture. I was down there for eight, ten days.

Every Ozzy I've met through the punting world, It's like, I'm a fan of it. Like, I think your guys' vibes, athleticism, everything is great for sport. I'm happy the NFL's going back there. Time is crazy, though. The time is insane. Oh, yeah. How do you do that with family?

Do you, like, have set times that you catch up with people? How does that all work? Yeah, I mean, it's hard to face time with the time difference, obviously. But there's, like, sections of the day where you just make it work. And then traveling, like, everyone's freaking out about traveling with the team. But, you know, to go play there, you leave at night. then you land in the morning. It's really, I think people are, you know,

overestimating how jet lag they're going to be. I feel like it's worse when you go to Europe. So I think everyone will be fine. I like where your head's out of. Okay. Now, the thing that scared the hell out of me, and you know this is, you know, they have a screen in front of you.

It's tracking where a plane is. That's all blue. There is nothing. There is not a single. We're 10 hours into that thing, and it's all blue. It's like, okay, so if anything happens here at all, there's no chance. No.

There is. So you kind of get that going, you know, as you're sitting in a tube for that long. But you're right. If you are able to make it to waking up in the morning there, it is like fresh up. And then the coffee there. Food. Oh, yeah. The food's so good over there.

Yeah. Yeah, you're a world champion here, though. Don't ever fucking forget it. All right, Dixon. Let's not forget it. Okay, we've got a couple more questions for you. Go ahead, DeBud. Congrats again, champ.

As a defensive player and that great defense, you play with, as a punter, you're a part of that defense. It's like a punt. That's the first play of defense. I'm sure you probably wear a defensive color jersey in practice. I hope you do. So I want to just ask you, what's your relationship with that defense? I know a lot of young guys that fly around, talk a lot of shit, which I love. What's your relationship with that defense? Then Mike McDonnell, I want to ask about the prop you guys have in your team meeting room

that made its way to the internet with all the helmets, kind of the heads of the opponents that you've conquered throughout the season. What was your first reaction to see in that? Yeah, relationship with the defense is like we're close. I love those guys. And like I said earlier, you know, I down one inside the 10 and everyone's running up, pat me on the head and getting around it. So that obviously means a lot.

But yeah, I mean, we're cool outside of the, you know, outside of the game as well. So this unit is super close. It's been really fun to be on this team. Yeah, and then the helmet stacking, I mean, it's just a cool. visual, and yeah, I mean, collecting, collecting heads. Yes, yes, you certainly are. Yes, you certainly. It doesn't feel like it's going to stop, you know. It just doesn't feel, and we were telling the Niners that they were coming on the show, obviously, all the week.

Fred was a part of the actual coverage. Oh, yeah. Kyle Shanahan, apart of the actual coverage. NFC West, San Francisco 49ers, a large part of the coverage, and then all of a sudden you got the NFC West, Seattle Seahawks actually in the Super Bowl. Interesting dynamic there, especially with the relationship. Go ahead, Ty. Yeah, speaking of that, was that, I'm sure.

you know, leading up, you guys, you guys obviously aren't thinking about that at all. But after you win the game and you're celebrating and you got, you know, the hats and smoking cigars and everything, was there any part of you that was kind of like, you know what, this is actually awesome that we won this in the Niners Stadium and we kind of get to just stick it right up a division rival's ass one more time a couple weeks after beating the shit out of them. For sure. I mean, that made it that extra bit. It was a cherry on top. You know, there was in the locker room, all the 49ers logos, were plastered with Seahawks logos.

Yes. And, yeah, I mean, it made it extra sweet. It couldn't be any better. It's perfect. The future of that NFC West looks very good, you know, for the long haul. Obviously, you know that. How old are you now? You're very, you're vet now, vet now.

Yeah, I just turned 30. So I'm going into my ninth year. This is coming in this next year. Okay, so you guys start kicking over there when you're like four, right? Let's have a kick. Let's have a, you do the entire thing. and it feels like, I mean, with way punter and technology, is Thomas Morsted just finished up, what, year 19 or something?

Yeah, you got another 10 years of doing this, you think, in the body? Yeah. Yeah, I mean, this is, this is, I've, this has been my best year hitting the ball. So, I mean, each year I've improved, so I'm like, why not? I mean, not even halfway of my career, hopefully. You got more shit to do with it, are you guys bringing in the banana ball and all this other stuff?

I mean, that last punt where you turn that song bitch sideways, you know, and line drive that thing over their heads. The reason why I think it's so impressive is because if that's a foot lower, that's hitting somebody's head. And then all of a sudden, you know, this is worst night of Dixon's life. Instead, the amount of courage and confidence in yourself that that takes just to be like, let me go ahead and just sidewind this thing over six foot four freak athletes' heads. Because if somebody puts their hand up and blocks that, this guy's a dipshit. Dixon's an absolute dip shit.

But instead, like, just having the ability to move the pocket a little bit, right or left, being able to athlete it almost. It's like you're a special talent, Michael. It's really cool shit to watch. Is there more on the horizon? Are we just mastering everything we already have? Yeah, I think there's a couple that I've been playing with. I mean, it's more situation-based that I should, I might bring him out next year.

We'll see. Yeah, let's run a touch. Yeah, I too. Oh, yeah. Let's go ahead and do one of those. We appreciate your man. Safe Travel is back. Thank you.

What's next you guys? The parade, I guess. Hold on Tonner has a question. Yeah, Michael. Is there any one of your teammates that we need to do. to keep our eyes open for at the parade? Who's going to put on a show at the parade? Like, if you had to pick one?

You know, AJ. AJ Barner's going to do something funny. Okay, good. He's a meathead, so he'll do something cool, I'm sure. Great touchdown. First touchdown of the game. Full quarter, AJ Barner. Shout it to him.

He won a lot of us money. He won a lot of us a lot of money. Very, very, very pumped for AJ Barner. Tell that meathead to enjoy the hell out of what he just did. He certainly should. John Schneider is who, AJ said. AJ, is that coming back to the Packer days? John Schneider can really tear it down, you know,

especially with what he accomplished? Yeah, he's a man's man. I would say he's going to enjoy himself. He absolutely should. He's the first guy ever to do this, right, as a GM. Yeah, absolutely. Full new team. Now, hey, Michael, what is the Australian?

Foster's. Are you just ordering all the Fosters in the Western United States of America for the parade, or how's that going? No, I think Fosters is kind of like the Outback Steakhouse of Beers. What? You're telling me the Blooming Onion isn't real either, you son of a bit. So it's great. What do you mean?

What do you mean by the? of that. Yeah. No, I mean, I don't say anyone drinking drinking fosters. Yeah, you're in America. Yeah, Australian for beer. Exactly. That was good marketing. They got us. Yeah, big time. Have you seen the, okay, you know rugby probably because you grew up in Australia, right? Yeah, yeah, I know. Okay, do they do the Oklahoma drill? Like, is that thing that we're seeing on TV right now or on the internet? Is that like a known rugby drill? Like,

how do we get to that point? Because the one that we're watching, I think is founded by Aussie dudes. I think all these are founded by Aussie dudes. And it's just wrong thing, running directly. So this is called Run Nation. I believe it hit this weekend. Run It was another organization that we've seen on the internet for a while where they were just kind of doing it at a field

where there was just a line of people and they were just run into each other. Is that normal? And how are you at this game? Good, I assume. And can I jump over the person? I think this is kind of like, this was something that people would probably do at practice or at school. you know, it's just a way to kind of see who wins to flex on the other person.

But yeah, I mean, it's blown up. It's a crazy, crazy sport. I would never, I would never do that. Okay, so southern part of Australia, if I'm correct, Ozzy Rules football, right? And then northern kind of rugby, is that accurate? Yeah, so it's, yeah, east, northeast is more rugby. I grew up in Sydney, that's more rugby. but then Melbourne, Victoria, South Australia, Western Australia, that's more Aussie rules.

Who's your team? Collingwood, Magpies. Oh, hey. Nice. I was a, Coxilla. I was a big fan of the Magpies for a while. I'm going to let you know, though. Brisbane Lions gave me a jersey.

We just went back to back. Boom. We just went back to back. Yeah, it's great to be a Brisbane Lion, brother. I want to let you know. We love that sport. That's a great. I didn't know about that until like Coke.

Yeah, COVID. I learned about Ozzie football and COVID because everybody said that punting style that you guys we're doing rugby style rugby style rugby style it's like i guess it is rugby style but all these dudes are Aussie rules football players i had no idea that was case until uh COVID great game great sport yeah no it's fun yeah yeah I miss it I still dream about it sometimes and I'm out there killing it in my dream so it'd be cool to go home and watch it are you getting some speckies what what is kind of oh yeah yeah you're getting speckies kicking it around scoring goals tall you know what you're doing now in real life bro yeah I know even better

Yes, sir. But also, I mean, hitting one of those. What is that at the cricket grounds, I believe? Oh, yeah. Off somebody's back. In the grand final. Oh, my. You back that thing up, and then now what you're saying, it's like, what a moment.

The dramatics of it all are awesome, too. I got a chance to go watch it in real time. Somebody goes up there, there lands. Obviously, there's a huge reaction. There's supposed to be a clock on how much time they have to kind of get the next kickoff. That clock is, there's a lot of, like, zero. Oh, it's okay there. Great sport, man.

Obviously, have created some legends. Congratulations on winning a Super Bowl, and hopefully this becomes even more of a pipeline, Australia, into the NFL, because obviously I think the continent will love American football. We appreciate you, man. Oh, thank you so much. No problem.

Hey, take care of it, dude. All right. Foster's. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Good to know. Yeah.

Kind of a dick move, if you ask me, to just hang up like that, but that's just me. I think he was the perfect answer. Actually, perfect ending to the conversation. He's a weapon. He's really, really good. Yeah. He's actually 30?

He thought he's been in the league. I thought he was the only guy. So Brad Wing, I don't know if he left LSU earlier. Dixon left Texas early. I don't know. One of them left early and it was like, I saw Dixon was the MVP of their, what's called Bull game, yeah.

Yeah. And I think he left. I don't know if that was early, but then he left. But yeah, he is unbelievable. All the Aussie guys, that came over, it was like, hey, they could be the next Dixon. They could be the next, they could be it. And then for him to actually be the one, because a lot of tried, like a lot of tried,

a lot of great Aussie punters in college. A few have obviously made it into the NFL. Scotland now has a couple. Ireland has a couple kickers. It's like these ball kicking countries are starting to get kind of end to the NFL. But out of Australia, Michael Dixon was the one where everybody was like, oh, this is possible. This is possible. I think he's pretty unique, no matter what country he was.

was from, I think he is very, very unique with what he... How big is he? I think, I would assume he's a strapping laugh. Big laugh. I would assume. But his, he has the ability, they call it a torpedo, which is what we do for punning. They call it a torpedo kick. His ability to torpedo the ball, tight spiral with a bad drop means he's like athletic.

He, like, has to change his foot to his drop, which is only happening in like half a second because his drops are kind of interesting. They're down and inside. But the way he's able to control it, and then he's got all these other shit, it's like the amount of courage it takes to do it in a Super Bowl, in that particular, the moment of money, obviously huge, but the amount of talent you have to have for all of that. It's like, he's a special dude.

I appreciate all the international ball kickers coming, but it's like, I think it'd be tough to find, you know, just another Michael Dixon. Like, I know we're selling, like, hey, there's more Michael Dixon's. And maybe there are some, I don't think there's going to be a lot of them, though. I think there is levels to this whole thing. America, Ireland, Scotland, Australia.

Dixon's a guy, no matter what. It's how you joined him a lot of. You kind of think, oh, okay, Australia has Dixon's and my lotas just growing on trees, and they're all over there, and they're eventually just going to come over and become, you know, superstar punters and left tackles. But it's few and far between. I mean, that's why he's, what, the first punter, yeah. Hard to make the league.

Yeah. Six to two, two, ten, he left early. Okay. Yeah. So, do you kick and punt in college? Just punted. Just punted still? Yeah, dude, he was like.

What are you doing that game? Like, great question. He's probably 14 and inside five. That's what it was like. He was... But him going to Seattle is just so far away. Yeah. You know, punter in Seattle.

I mean, thinking about the amount of stories. Yeah. That's not a lot of, like, national. Especially with the defense. He caused the turnover. What was that? Two games ago. So it says they punted 11...

Yeah, against the Rams. They punted 11 times in that bowl game. 10 inside the 15. Okay. Okay, that'll do. Yeah, pretty damn good. And whenever you ask him, if he wears the defense of Jersey, He said, yes, I do or whatever.

It's like, I think he takes a lot of pride in what he does. He's obviously phenomenal. Seems to be super chill. Yeah, big time. Super chill. Great mood today, that's for sure. Well, how about Bob Irwin? Oh, yeah.

Now we got Bixen on the program. Kind of going down under around here. A little bit. Start working on that Aussie accent. I know. I need to continue to kind of brush it off. How about him saying? And everybody talks about the flight.

Like, leave a night, wake up in a morning. It's kind of time. Way worse going to Europe. See, okay. Starting to get in a little. I appreciate you doing it. start working on that because I think down under is going to become big for football as a whole. Speaking of football as a whole, you know, it's nice to have hindsight in this particular sport

in this particular game, especially in the biggest game of the year. We started a segment last week that we certainly should have started about beginning of the season, maybe two years ago. Ladies and gentlemen, it's time for Monday morning DC with DB. Hey, hey, much. Now, obviously Monday morning means like Monday morning quarterback where we have the incredible heads up of hindsight on what actually has. happens. So this is coming from a space of how would you have stopped it with one of the best

defensive minds to ever speak into a microphone, Darius J. Butler. How we fix into problems that happened for New England last night if we were to look back at the film? Well, you know what? It was tough to fix those problems because usually that's where we start and we'll see that probably on the third one, but this one, since we have such a dominating defensive performance, we'll just go with the good to start out here. Let me get this stick back here. Yep, yep. Oh, nice. Yeah, I like that. Yeah. Just so we get a vision. Hey, great. fucking job last time. Hey, it was pretty good. I felt like I knew what was happening. I've been trying, yeah,

sticks. No, we hit sticks. Oh, okay. Oh, nice. Touch tips. Swords. Hand off date. Touch tips. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. Whoa. What's your bra? That's what you do. You touch tips. I don't even know it. Touch tips and explode on that board, baby. Let's go.

Come on. I don't even got to talk about. Doc those things. Here we go. We are about to. We're about to take a trip on boat into super good football analysis. Where we have, Mike? We go with the Mike. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right now. Okay, cool, cool. Okay, so third and 15, we talked a bunch about this defense and how they do a lot with two shells, you know, play it back,

four rushers. Once you get in third and 15 of these long downed distances, now a coach like Mike McDonald can just dial it up and do whatever you want. So now you have a different look here. You got Amy and Worri down here on the edge. You got Job and Press, split safety look, and then their best blitzer, probably the best blitzing DB when it comes to a true nickel slot with Devon Witherspoon,

young dynamic corner coming from the slot times this up perfectly a j mentioned it earlier with the speed that he hits the line of scrimmage with is no way that these offensive tackles or offensive guards are going to be able to move their feet and stay in his way and this is a skill that you kind of just almost have to be born with as a db yeah the timing is so important AJ because they get locked up on their guys right i got one or outside guy two or who becomes and he just kind of gets snaking him maybe maybe this offensive line isn't as ass as everybody's saying Maybe it's just scheme and problems attacking what they know their weak is. It's plays, but it's also players, because you can dial this up for a lot of players,

and it's no way they get through that traffic. Over the years, over the history of the game, I can think of like Charles Woodson or like the Honey Badger. Some of these players just have a natural, like they're football players, and they have a feel for how to hit it, when to hit it. Because pre-snap, Drake May, a give, if you, yep, pause it here, a give, a tail for a slot blitzing defender is the safety behind them. You have that safety behind because once he leaves typically this guy or a guy from the inside is going to take his responsibility.

You see that, AJ? So right out you got the top. Why would they be stacked on top of each other, Drake? That's what he's going to learn going forward, right? That's what. Yeah. But also for the offense, Steve, but, like, is there not some sort of, hey, I'm just going to, instead of running a vertical 20 yards downfield because he's never going to see me yet? Is there not just some, like, checked to, you know, a hot route, hot route, bro.

the Cooper Wedding Crashers just run a hitch. It definitely could be. If you pause it, though, offensively, and this will be a better question, I'm sure for AQ, who can really break it down. He's going to be so pissed with what I'm doing. Officially, we got six rushes, and I've run it back to the very beginning, please. So

Ernest Jones, he's showing, you got Eamon Warris showing. He's going to drop out, though, so I don't know where they slid, how they counted it. He's going to drop out, and the added rush is going to come from the out. He's not even in the screen right now, because I perfectly times it up. But numbers-wise, you still have six on six.

You got five offensive linemen with the back, and you got six rushers. So on paper, and even Henry's getting a chip in there. So on paper, you should have enough to pick this up. He lets him go. Goes to help him, I think, because, yeah. And a big whiff on. So you got a six-man protection plus the tight-end chip,

and AQ will clean us up, I'm sure. But, yeah, but, I mean, that's just a great feel for it. Great job timing it up, and a great call, and it long down the dish for Mike McDonald. So what are we saying? saying, hey, the guy's coming. Let's just know that. That's Monday morning quarterbacking right now. That's Monday morning quarterbacking. Fix it up, having the protection, I'm sure, in the old line, in the trenches in their room, they're really talking about how do we get on

the same page picking this up, especially against this defense. I'm sure they saw this on tape and some type of variation. Maybe it was Emmer Worry, maybe it was love, whoever it was. And that's the other thing about Seattle. They have so many different defensive backs and defensive players that can do different things at a high level. Great tacklers, too. I thought Drake was going to get away a lot more. than he did whenever there was some pressure. He was getting tackled a lot. Joining us now, ladies the gentleman,

is a man who might know a little bit more about what the big boys were doing on this particular. A.A., ladies and the trenches, hey Keith Shipley. Hey, Kew. Hey, Kish, what the hell is going on out here? We didn't know that Wetherspoon was coming and you think that's the problem?

What about Moses? Does he see him? This is Monday morning quarterbacking, obviously in the moment. It's much harder than what we have right now from the sky camera. We're not talking anybody. But what happens in this situation?

Should he be calling that that out? Should the center be calling that out? Should how does this kind of normally operate and they fix this? Yeah, so the interesting thing is, is as they have all the guys up, you, they can bring four to the left. They can bring four to the right. Have no idea with the center going right, you are in a sort protection. So you got center guard tackle for three for most dangerous four. You should go inside out.

So Moses actually should have stopped on the DB. So as the DB comes, he should have stopped there. I think he tried to just missed him as he makes an inside move, just like he made Will Campbell look silly on the other side on an earlier play. But we always tell the running back, the running back has coast to coast. So he starts left thinking that that is his guy. Well, he has to stay there because that guy comes so he can't come across for the other guy, which then leaves.

It should be the outside most guy on the quarterback. Should be able to throw hot. But Moses misses the DB coming. inside and as he comes inside he misses him so that guy comes free but may should be hot off the outside guy this is hot right here yeah that's hot that's who you got to get it to right now and you got to know that if they bring four to the right or four to the left then you're then you got to get rid of that ball fast and that's on drake may okay so this is a great scheme too because they keep running back this way right this is a mcdonald special damn near yeah absolutely i mean this is one

of those things because he's shown that look a million times and only brought four right DB, like at the end of the day, he has that same look where he shows seven, brings four, brings five, brings six, or can bring seven, and ultimately that's cover zero. All right, is the next one with offensive lines? Next one is as well, yep. Hey, Q, will you hang around here? I get all the time in the world, boys. Come on, let's go.

Hey, what do you do? Aggressive comment, I would say. Poking a bear. Wait, what do you do? Aggressive? Oh, yeah, he did. What do he do? I start training the boys tomorrow.

I got a couple guys in the shipyard tomorrow, but today, I got nothing but time for you guys. Okay. Nothing but time, nothing but time. Thor called him a fatso. Yeah. What did he call Thor? Well, he got a fucking pussy.

What are we doing? What are we doing? Yes. I would love to line up and do all line drills and show him what leverage all of them. Okay. What if he goes like this to you? Crushes your skull. I do appreciate that you got.

Then I would have turned into a UFC fighter. I learned from Justin Gates. You just kicked the perennial nerves. Okay. All right. I do appreciate that you got offended by Martin calling you a fatso. I do appreciate that. I didn't see the earlier part, by the way.

He called AJ 450 pounds, so that at least makes me feel a little bit better. Yeah, exactly. I think he was just cracking jokes. He speaks a different language. Yeah. He speaks a different language. Look at you. Yeah.

He was just trying to talk Shepid with the boys. That's right. Thor, I would like let you know. AQ is offended by you calling him a facie. Yeah. And also, Thor, AQ, knows that we will hold that over his head for the rest of his life that the Martin, the world strongest man said, I can't lift that guy

That's awesome We appreciate you Thor He does not know He wants to fight you Thorpe Let's go to No whoa whoa Weird all Do you AQ

I don't know I mean he didn't say no Let's stop We move on We move on Hey that's where the short arms Might really come into play Hell yeah

Sorry I'll tell you what We were watching short arm Nope Yes we were No Torn MCL He had a torn MCL

MCL He's on I are He's 22 years old First year he's going up against what the greatest scheme in the history of football? We're not making excuses for people. We're not doing that. Yeah, Tor and MCL, how are you supposed to hate?

Hay! So does someone else been playing in? No, he's, well, he's... Or maybe we throw 6-0 lineman in, though, Tony. That's not a bad idea. Well, Chip may be a little assistance, maybe with some big bodies out there, certainly you felt. Tor and MCL is going to be tough to...

Hit! Yeah, that's going to be tough to do. That's going to be tough to do. Honestly, I think we just found out through the conversation with Jack Cohnsworth, that it was officially a torn MCL. Because remember, he had the towel over his head when the whole thing happened.

I thought his whole knee exploded when it first happened. Like it was torn everything. It was just MCL. But, I mean, yeah, to DeButz's point, you don't make excuses. But yeah, it is going to be pretty damn hard to, as AQ would say, re-anchor yourself when you're getting bull rushed over and over again. But, you know, that's Monday morning offensive line coach. Yes, it is.

And now let's do a little more Monday morning defense coordinator with DB. What's next? So the last one was the six-man pressure on. Third and long, an obvious pass situation. If you run it back again, this is when they like to bring their pressure. Obvious passing situation. Now this is the scoring time.

It's 227, 437 on the clock in the fourth quarter. First and 10. So DBs, you're playing with a ton of depth and once again, Devin Witherspoon with a great disguise, great timing, hitting this, rush it, boom. Let it run, let it run a little bit. Pause it here.

So now you're bringing the pressure, and once again, you're getting a free hitter. Looks like the running back's releasing through the line of scrimmage right pass a blitzer, first and ten. Witherspoon not only gets the, it looked like a forced fumble, forced from recover. I think they called an interception.

Pitch six, just an unbelievable play. Started with the spoon, ended with a Wusoo. A Wosu. A Wosu. A Wosu. Incredible play there. Is this thing in 1080P? Yeah, I know. 3.20?

I couldn't see. Incredible job. Right now. Much clearer picture with the way you're describing it than what I was saying there. I was, that's a phenomenal, I mean, incredible breakdown of what we need to see. I don't know if anybody can see. It looks incredible on TV.

Let me see it from the replay. Yeah, I think it looks incredible. The, uh, Oh, no. Hey, these guys are unstoppable. So this is going to be forever now with the Seahawks? Yeah, this is what they do.

This is what Mike McDonnell does. And once again, from that, back that last replay, you can see how, however he gets home free, but you'll see the numbers-wise. These guys, once again,

drop her coming from the opposite side. And again, you get a free hitter with the Air Force to Witherspoon. They're so good. Yeah. AQ, what are you thinking here? Hey, yeah, so can we, Can we go to that? Can we stop it from the other angle from the offenses behind? Can we bring it back to that?

Yeah, certainly. Right there. Perfect. What's not going on what you're doing? So this is what I don't understand. Again, this is a young quarterback. This is a rookie. Really, he's his first year really starting full. So it's a second year, obviously. But first year getting a full season, right? So he will learn. You've got to switch this protection. So if we can rewind this just a little bit more. So the guy basically over top of the tight end, DB, can you point to him the guy off the ball? Oh, no, no, a little bit further off the ball. Over top of the tackle, essentially.

Yeah, that guy, there you go. So that's the Sam linebacker. It's a two-by-two formation. Strong's-A! Two-by-two over to tight end. So you get the Sam. Now you got Mike and Will. Okay, so we always say,

find the middle of the three. So the middle of the three is over Morgan Moses, right tackle, right there. So he should redirect this protection, send the center right. They would be two-for-two on the nose guard to the mic, and then the back would pick up the DB. You're picked up.

You got all the time. He sends the center left. So now you get two free off the left side like that. The back can only handle one. But as he saw it, the threat is the two most dangerous were to the right, send the center right, now the guard ends up on one of those two and the back has the other in your picked up. So he got New York, New York, New York is what he would say there before the play call.

That is what he would say? 100%. Tom Brady, a quarterback right there is switching that protection. He's thinking two most dangerous are going to be coming from the. the right right there. If they don't, we're still picked up and I can throw hot if they bring from the left. And he's looking for that too. He's waiting for me.

The guard doesn't even block anybody, AQ. That's what they do. They get it to where they take advantage. The guard ends up. Because they're sending the whole line. So he's got to go with Leonard Williams. So that's a four for five sliding the line, bringing on Wenu with Bradbury all the way over to the left. But if they

send the center right there, now you're two for two center to the Mike linebacker and then the back can sit on the Will, who's the DB coming, and then, bam, all of a sudden you're picked up. There it is. That's Monday morning offensive line comes off. Hey, we appreciate that, AQ. Thank you for joining us, man.

Happy, uh, well, I don't really know, actually, man. Happy Olympics. Boys, I got you on the big screen. Whoa. Thank you. Hey, you look pretty good there. Good lighting there. I think you did a good job.

Don't you think I just saw you on the big screen down there, lower corner? I thought you. I mean, I feel like Schefter over here. Shefter was a little shaky up there in L.A. A. little shaky. Come on his shoulders. What do you think he's been walking through the airport all day? He's carrying his bag.

Holding his phone. He's got a lot going on, A.K. You're saying he wants to showcase that you have a nice, sturdy forearm and tricep that you can lock in. Is that what you're saying? Coming off, Super Bowl week, tough journey out there, then straight into waste management. I'm a little shaky too, boys. Hey, a lot of journeys out there in San Francisco. Some signing up for more journeys.

some, it appears, retiring journeys for the rest of their lives, hanging up their journey jerseys for the rest of their lives, had a good time. Waste management seemed like a blast until you guys are yelling in people's back swings in extra holes or whatever. Wayne's flying over.

Yeah, so what's going on? That was tough. That was tough. The little shadow over Hodecki's punt and then yelling in the back swing. We certainly wanted an American to win, clearly. Wanted an American to win. I don't like that that happened, though,

because I'll tell you what, I like whenever people were able to have a good time and it be considered good, you know. This stuff, I think they're reviewing it as a negative to golf where I think waste management is a good for golf. So, you know, there's little things that I think people, just like whenever we're watching Live

and they're playing music around the green, it's like they got golf figured out. Probably shouldn't have a bunch of music just jamming as they're trying to drain a six inch put. It kind of takes away the tension that's potentially happening. The immediate sound, and it sounded like it was metal. Like somebody dropped something metal-wise. They said some worker who was working at the event dropped like a chair or something.

Yeah, and it was in the back swing, middle of backswing. It's like, that is what, the worst. The playoff hole. Yeah, in the playoff hole for the thing. That's like worst case scenario, I think, whenever it comes to like Cuth stuff. So, you know, I like waste management. I haven't even had a change to really go to it. No.

But I'm a big fan of what it is. So I would like you guys to keep it over there, though. So let's not, you know, let's not be, he would have been a good champion. Yeah. What a pot by God. What a putt by God are up, though. I mean, what a pot. It was unbelievable.

He showed out. Yes, he certainly did. Was there a time when Scotty was going to go or no? Yeah, he was going to run. Oh, good for you guys. He got to, what, 14 or 15? 15. Yeah, AJ texting me.

He goes, Scott, he's going to win this thing. And what you say? Yeah, right, brother. Wait until you see what we do these bulbs. Watch this. We got a shadow gimmick we're going to do. We got a whole thing. All right.

We appreciate the hell out of you, AQ. You're the man. You guys are the best. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Thank you. He was not happy with Thor. No, he wasn't. All right.

One more for a Monday morning. Okay, awesome. AJ could probably help me with. This was the AJ Barner touchdown, tough, tough spot to be in as a linebacker. So right, pause it. Down in distance, situation is always important when it comes to play caller.

Right now you're up 12-0 of your Seattle Seahawks coming into the situation. So now defensively, you're probably thinking, run the ball, try to continue eating up clock, a little under 14 minutes left from the situation. the game. So first and 10, 12 personnel, you're thinking run. You let it play here. Watch all this communication that has to take place with these three players. And now pause it. All these players in him, they have run responsibilities as well. This safety, now he's on the tight end. He has a

run responsibility, a run gap. This linebacker, he's also in the tight end burner. He has a run gap. So if you have a good play action fake, you always talk about this element with quarterbacks too, especially quarterbacks that play a ton of under center and play action paths, the Aaron Rogers, with Tom Brady's. When they have that action, that can hide the ball, do all the good things, and it marries up with the past game in the run game.

It's a great weapon to get guys wide open, especially in this part of the field. So right here, boom, eyes are just in the wrong place, but I've been in that spot. My second year, actually, it was a specific play. Monday night football.

I believe the titan was Keller against the Jets. They got me bench. Third and one, goal line situation. Eyes in the back field play action. Right over the head, you're the last person in the building to know what's coming.

But see it from this back end. AJ, I know you've been in this situation a ton. Oh, yeah, see, they set this up. I think I sent it into the group chat. Somebody put them together where they showed the same kind of look in this motion. They ran outside zone. I don't know, two, three, four times

before this in the game, just setting this up because it's true. Look at, if you're that outside backer, it happened on the fly, too. Like, you didn't get a good look pre-snap. It happens where all of a sudden they're putting the run fake directly in your face, and then you have this guy run this seven to the corner of the end zone.

It just puts you in parallel. because you can't really play the run as physical as you'd like it, and you have to play the pass here because this is what happens. It's just a beautiful play call, and they set it up throughout the game, but they also set up because they were successful running the ball. If they would run the ball like garbage all night, maybe you get a better read and you see this, and you don't let this play happen. Kubiak and Fernando are going to be awesome.

Yeah. Kubiak might be the real, like for real. You're talking about him setting it up and doing all this stuff. A lot of similar things to Ben. Sorry, go ahead. No, that one motion. You're running back. Just look how many people.

51 just has to communicate. Right now he's on the safety. He's on the safety. Now he's talking to his safety. And right now he's saying, hey, in and out with this linebacker, and he actually ends up doing the in and out with the safety over there. So as a nickel, I've been in this situation a ton. So right now the end and out is now he's on the back.

He's on the tight end. With this in and out, you're going to be on the outermost tight end. So right now they both have to, you got to respect and honor the run fake, especially when the running back is not Kenne Walker in this situation. But the back, they've been gassed you, especially in those outside zones. You got to honor to run fate, to run pass, and then honest play pass, and then you dial up wide open, wide receivers, the tight ends in the situation. Hey, thank you, Wanda Moore.

We have a top five coming out of the Super Bowl as well that we need to hit. You know, AJ, we've been doing us every single Monday all the season, have to do it for Super Overreaction Monday, although we felt like the game was probably going to take, you know, both hours of conversation. We had at least have our top five headlines coming out of Super Bowl. AJ, number five, super special, special teams, Myers and Dixon pitch perfect game. Nothing really else needs to be said, both historic in their own ways, both historic in their own jobs in both a necessity to the Seahawks winning a Super Bowl, AJ, your thoughts?

Yeah, I'd say if you did not think that special teams, especially the punt, is a gigantic piece of football. You saw that last night, obviously, being perfect on field goals, but the punts just absolutely hamstring that Patriots offense. They had such a long field all night long. Jason Myers becomes first player in the history of ball to go more than 200 points in a season, including the playoffs. Shout to him, he might be on pace to maybe pass Vinny in about 15 years.

Maybe. He never misses this guy. But once again, he's in Seattle, so nobody really talks about him. And then Dixon being able to do what he did, he becomes the only punter this century to have two puns pinned inside the five and the Super Bowl or whatever. Huge, absolutely huge game for both of them.

Let's go to number four. The sun rose today. Drake, May? It's not over. It's 23 years old. He did look like ass. That Seahawks defense did that to a lot of quarterbacks. I think he learns from this and moves forward.

Connor, your thoughts on the sun coming up today. Yeah, no doubt about it. Using his fuel, I think, is what his message was to the rest of the team in the locker room last night. With Mike Rable there as well, I think they'll be just fine. Yeah, and let's also remember number three headline, AJ, he's a rookie and he had torn MCL. Okay, Wilkins was supposed to be anchoring. He's 22 years old. He had torn MCO was in the Super Bowl.

He was getting bodied a little bit. I think it's going to fuel him, if anything we know about him, is actual. Seems to be a dog. I'm excited for him this offseason. Yeah, and people are a very matter-of-factly saying they're moving them inside. Let's give them off-season, maybe lift some weights, get a little stronger here, and then we'll see what happened. Number two headline, Dark Side Domination.

Is the next dynasty actually up in Seattle, AJ? Were we wrong about the coast? I mean, I think it's definitely possible. I know Shepty said they have some decisions they have to make. If they can keep this core intact, there's no reason why this Seattle Seahawks team can't be great for the next five, eight years. Incredible players, but McDonnell will be able to find those for his system, you think? And so is Schneider?

Young players, I'm sure they'll pay the right one. but the most important hiring is going to be the next OC. And John Schneider, won with the offense with Russell Wilson as opposed to Legion of Boom. What do they do this time with a defensive head coach whenever they have to make those decisions? We shall see you. Number one, Donald and McDonald a match made by the football gods. Congratulations to them both. Changing narratives so quickly overnight about themselves. Sam Donald, hey, Super Bowl champion. That's right.

Mike McDonald, Super Bowl champion, coach. Congratulations, boys. You can win the biggest game on Earth. You can win the Super Bowl. You're both certified. Seahawks are legit. We can't thank football enough for what it did for us this season. We're so incredibly lucky and thankful that we get to do this for a living. It only happens because all of you watch. The season wraps up here on this glorious overreaction Monday. We'll be taking a couple weeks off. Okay? And when we come back, NFL Combine. Yeah. USA baseball. What? Players championship. What? then football again.

We're going to try and enjoy it all. We're so lucky that this is what our lives are. I think San Francisco proved that even more, and this past season has been majestic. You all are the greatest people on Earth. Thank you so much for letting us live this life. We'll see you in a couple weeks. Goodbye. Okay. Okay, happy for them.

Nailed it. Happy. That was a good handoff. I was a great handoff. Goodbye. Yeah, sports center. Who'd we hand to? Sports center.

And they're doing a handoff. They're in Bristol. Exactly. it off. Yeah, so I think it wasn't good. We should have hammered that one more time. I think we should have known. Would that change?

How could you? Well, no, I mean, like, is this something the networks do every year? They're like, let's hand it off to whoever gets the next Super Bowl. I think it's the first time. Okay, yeah, I'm saying. Probably because it's stupid. No, it's not.

It's a good way to announce that ESPN's got this Super Bowl. Yeah, no doubt. To your point, though, I can't remember. It might have been Friday after the show. show. We were in the elevator going to go to the lobby to get ready to go to the airport. And someone was like, you know, someone who works at ESPN, I can't remember who it was. They're like, you know, you guys, you guys leaving. And we were like, yeah, you know, we're done for the way. It's great.

Like, what are you doing? And he's like, oh, I got to stick around through the game on Sunday and then fly to L.A. afterwards for the, like, you could tell it was, I mean, whoever, they were ready to get the hell out of there. And his work week was pretty much just starting. So, I mean, it's one of those things where, yeah, it would have been nice to be there to maybe either give the handoff or receive the handoff. I think we're enough people watching after the game, you know.

Like, that's the thought of it. I like the thought of doing it here today. You know, like the entire thing today. That makes a good idea. And also, Tariko goes immediately to Olympic coverage, so maybe the only coverage of ball, I guess was Boomer on the field with his desk, electric, and then sending it over to SoFi after, I don't know.

You know, hey, it's on ESPN this year. That's the thing. Next year, Super Bowl is on ESPN. It's a huge deal down there in Los Angeles. Massive deal. I don't think we knew the Super Bowl was on NBC until week eight, maybe. I feel like it was something at least I forgot constantly. Now, because of this handoff gimmick, I will know that the Super Bowl is on.

So it worked. So it worked. So it worked. It was on NBC until we had Torrico on last week. I will say. I also potentially got a heads up. and immediately he was like, oh, we should probably talk to Mike if he's calling a Super Bowl. And then the next day he was like on.

So pretty recent, yeah, pretty recent for me as well, because it is a big deal. Super Bowl, who knows what these numbers are going to be? And this had the least amount of stars outside of the football world. Yeah. Least amount of buzz, I think, outside the football world. The only real conversation outside of football was Bad Bunny. Yeah. This guy speaking, not our language?

What? Fuck that. Telling me. me. I watched football all year. Telling me I need download Duo fucking lingo. Okay. To enjoy it. That was the conversation. Yeah.

Outside of the Super Bowl. It wasn't like a 23-year-old quarterback. Drake May back with the New England Patriots and Mike Frable, back at the team that he won a Super Bowl with, caught some touchdowns, made a lot of tackles with, recharging an entire fan base. Mike McDonald, very unique character who also is a defensive head coach who seemingly a mastermind, Sam Donald, Revenge.

Instead, he heard people from New York be like, Sam Donald guy's not good at football he is good at football it's like no I grew up in Jersey yeah he sucks he fucking stinks at football

I don't follow football much but I know Sam Donald acid football that is what I know it's like no he's in a Super Bowl he might went okay okay

it's like people outside of ball were struggling to find things to latch on to now I assume because it is a Super Bowl all those people people that were struggling on that's on, still turned on a game. So I assume the number will still be gigantic.

And now, what was the stay rate? What was the stay rate? Probably not great. Yeah, I assume there was a lot of, okay. And they were saying the game was over, like, in the end of the second quarter, if you went up 12-0, and that doesn't help, I guess. I'll tell you, they hit another field goal and make this thing less than a two-score game. It's over.

It's like 70% of the games this year with comebacks or something like that. I think that's where Roger Goodell, said at his press conference, you know, because he was asked about some sort of something. And I think it was like 70% of the games had comebacks this year, blah, blah, we had this amount of one-score games, everything like that. Second quarter, with the way this is looking. I'll tell you, they score another safety. They get two more points here.

They turn a single 11 zip. Yeah. That's about all she runs. I mean, this thing's about, which is how it felt with the Seattle Seahawks defense, which I think was a compliment to the Seahawks defense. And it ended up being pretty real, although Drake won for 235 in the fourth. And the 12 nothing, like I mentioned earlier at the beginning, 12 nothing felt worse than 283 against the Falcons. But I think the reason I, in particular, I'm the only one in here, really, that doesn't like Collinsworth.

The reason is we have guys like Greg Olson and JJ Watt who are just number two boosts that should be in prime time. That is my big gripe. And then when, you know, you get a stinker like that on there and you get a lot of, uh, I got nothing. It's like, okay. Well, that's just That's not what you're there for. I think C.C. knows that Connor has been. I assume Patriots fans as a whole.

I don't think it's in, sure, I did see some people who are Patriots fans like, Chris Collinsworth hates the Patriots. I don't think that's the truth. Like, you mentioned all the time with Joe Buck, if you call a bunch of big moments, especially with the Patriots, that being his sixth Super Bowl,

I don't know how many times he called a Patriots Super Bowl. I'm assuming what, that was four, three, four. I don't know. Collin games hard to make people like you. Because what some people like, obviously other people don't involve touching so many different people. It's an interesting dynamic there. Kid Rock really brought it.

He did. You see Bob Richie? Yeah, Kid and Bob. Yeah, yeah. Did he see Bob? Yeah. I didn't see a whole lot. What's that?

I didn't see a whole lot. What did he do? Was it like a Chris Gaines situation, Garth Brooks? Like, what do you mean? Well, there was a string duo. I don't know. So, Babani, San Benito, wraps up.

And then all of a sudden it's like, All right, what's going on over here? It was the exact timing for ball with the ball. It went straight to ball with the ball. I don't know if he was singing. You go from one, who? The mic was one. San Benito was singing.

No, no, no. That's what I heard. Hey, he was definitely singing. He was. Yeah, they always sing live. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. I was.

I think Bad Bunny sang. I think Bad Bunny sang. Oh, yeah, for sure. And I think the guy that was on the, I think he played. That was awesome. So that's the first time, I think, because normally Super Bowl shit, nobody plays. Right. Feels like Bad Bunny said I would like to sing, and they also, it felt like they.

Eddie Gaga. Yeah. I might be wrong. Ricky Martin was definitely singing. Because Super Bowl halftime shows normally all lip sync not allowed to do anything. Hey, this is how much we're paying. You're not. Because it's time to the exact second.

Like everything is time perfect. Boom. Feels like Bad Bunny was like, nah, we're. And he went through the table. We're doing this. Yeah. And fell off the thing. Yeah.

Oh, yeah. Into the liver room. Yeah. Yeah, there's a lot of, I mean, showman. This fucking guy, I don't know what you. I wish I knew what you were saying. But it was a incredible show. And as soon as he wraps up, they get a commercial.

Oh, a sudden, bald with the bar, the bang the dang, diggy, diggy. He said the bogey set up, jump the bogey, and then full on. I don't know what, he must, he had a wrist. He had a wrist. Yeah, was he hurt? Or was that for fashion? Didn't slow him down. We had four mic flips.

Yeah. About 30 seconds. Unbelievable. And every time he looked at it, it was like, yeah, God, yeah. Still got it. Then he, yeah. So I didn't see the whole thing, but I would say this. Bat Bunny

seemingly went out there and did what he wanted to do. You know, this is all my shit. And I appreciate that. And the Easter eggs in there were really cool. Like I guess no one, he took that shot from the lady at the bar. I guess that lady who is standing behind the bar owns a very famous restaurant in New York

for like the last 40 years. And she's from Puerto Rico. The kid that he gave the Grammy to, I guess was in a situation where he was detained. How about the, no, I don't think so. the people out front of the shed. There was an entire shed thing. I did see that.

Pedro. It wasn't. Pedro Asgard. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. The baseball player, Acuna.

That guy's founting blue guy. Obviously, Cardi B. Yeah. Pedro Pascar. Yeah. Jessica Alba. Yes.

Fascinating. Mm-hmm. You know, all the different. Because why not? What did you say? Nothing. What did you just say?

You know a lot of good dancing. There was a lot of dancing. A lot of dancing. It feels like there was a lot of dancing. Yeah, I got, got... Kid Rock, immediately after this, debuted a remix to a Cody Johnson song, I believe.

It's going to be available to show. Telling people they can accept Jesus Christ, they're going to change. Boom. I feel like both parties got to accomplish what they wanted to get accomplished. Positive night. And both parties got... Everybody's happy.

Slaughtered for it. Yeah, it did feel like that. Yeah. It did feel like that. That politics football. And I say, man, it'd be really cool and understand Spanish right now. You fucking piece of shit.

You watched it. Move to Mexico land, damn it. Then the other side of it. You don't fucking know Spanish, you fucking stupid piece of shit. What you don't ever to Mexico? Don't you stop being a racist, you fucking prick. Learn Spanish. It's like, mucos grosius, me, amigo.

I'm trying. Okay, I'm fucking hey. Okay, my brain ain't set up for it. Fucking trying. Learn Spanish. Fucking asshole. No who also crushed it. What, dude?

I'm trying. And then the other side, hating that I'm even watching it. It's like, what is your problem? What are we doing here? Can we not? The hell of a show of it. It was a spectacle. And I feel like that's human treat.

That's what the Super Bowl halftime should be. Like, they made a big deal when the weekend did it a couple years ago. And like the gimmicks he did. It was like, this kind of sucks. Like, I get it. But like, it isn't like, say what you want. I agree. I didn't understand a single word he said.

But like that was a spectacle that was in, line with what the Super Bowl is. And how about the show not ending weirdly? Normally the show ends weirdly and there's lights out and then they go, that was the halftime show. This one was them walking off with a bangor playing. That was a cool way to end. That was a cool way to end.

I thought it was really... Security Guard got a real face in the camera at the end here. Yeah. So you know what? Fuck it. I want a French speaking next year. Let's go. Let's just learn them all. Okay.

Let's not a bad idea. Let's just learn all languages. I tried high school. Yeah. Oh, shit, we're coming. We're leaving. How many million? All of them.

Okay, let me get out of the way. Shoulder pads on. Maybe he was going to hit somebody. Somebody sent this to Jamar Chase. Yeah. You're right. Because shoulder pads and full pads might be in fashion ones. Exactly.

And we wanted him to be ahead of the game. Yeah. Imagine clacking down the runway. That'd be awesome. Clackety, clackety, click. Click, click, click. Maybe Under Armour. Yeah.

AJ could voice it over, maybe. Oh, my God. Now we're talking. Is Under Armour doing it still? Oh, yeah. Are they? Big time. I don't know.

I've seen a lot of them. Jay, Jay's, Jeffsons, is he? Justin Jefferson? They got rid of what, Steph, right? Yeah, Steph doing his own things. Is the Rock still doing his stuff with him?

I believe so. Still has them all in Dick's sporting goods, yeah, a whole section. Not that. You guys talked about it. He's no bulldog. You guys talked about him. His ball security is the first thing I noticed.

I said, all right, attention to detail. He talked to somebody. It was high and tight. How about the spike? Yeah, Spike was much better, too. I was hoping it wasn't like a gossling situation, like the video I saw. What are you talking about?

That gossling situation, not good. He's a corner. Not good at all. I understand he's great on the Titans. He's a quick, rich cannon. He's Canadian. That's kind of what I, you know. He grabbed Bob Middle of football first.

He did. He did. He did. He did. He's like, okay. But you see how far he threw it? Fucking hummed it. Yeah.

Yeah, and then he was in boots too. He dragged his foot kind of weird. Oh, okay. Watch how far this one bitch goes. Oh, wow. Still going. That's only the second time I've seen that. That is bad.

No, it's good because he actually leads. I don't think it was good. It's going to run again here. Yeah, automatic. I love Gosling, too. This is tough to see. Hell married, baby. He'll be awesome.

Hell married, baby. Oh. Five-time conference player of the week. At DB. He's a star. At DB. Bust is a bus for you. He's not supposed to be.

you quarterback, they need to put him outside. And they benched his ass, too, if you remember. He was getting beat like he stole stuff. Oh, my God. Yeah, and then what happened? Debo, what do you think? I mean, every time I see it, I see just a different thing. Yep.

Watch again. It's all right. He was getting beat like he stole something. Bruce actually used that in a Texas morning with Hembo. Hembo gave Will Campbell's entire stats to us that he sent over into the group. And it was like this amount of pressures. this amount of blah-b-bah, he gave up two interceptions. He also did this with a fumble.

And Bruce goes, yeah, he was getting beat like he stole somebody. He didn't throw two picks. And Hembo follows up with like, well, actually, the person that causes the pressure that leads to the interception, we account for also in our stats or whatever. Will Campbell, the problem, basically is what he said this morning. Is that not right, Bruce? Yeah, and also, like, we were watching on NFL Pro, the actual interception sack where it was Witherspoon coming off the other edge.

So while Will Campbell, like, sort of. does give up a pressure. It wasn't his pressure that, you know, caused that exact interception. Connie, you don't want to run the play. No, he doesn't. I mean, Drake May's backing up to the left. So, like, sure, if you're going to where

the guy is going to be, like, you can say, that's the fucking problem right now, no, no, no, no. That's the problem with that. Not just played in love, but what we just talked about. It's fucking ridiculous. AQ just went through the whole protection. If it's on the center or the quarterback, in my, shit, the coach is well.

got to have a young quarterback ready to have. So that's Will Campbell? So you moved this is crazy. He has to move left because he's got to hit him. Listen, the stats people say, get him out of this. He had nowhere to go. You're a left tackle. That's what the stats people were saying.

Yeah, it was awesome. You should have seen Bruce, the follow-up text from Bruce to Hembo going. It was getting B like he stole his own. He didn't throw two bits. Like, what are we doing here? You got to get to the bottom of pressures and we got to figure out EPA, like a better way to, you know, almost contextualize it. Yeah, DVOA.

I'm out on all of them. All of them. Every acronym. Wins and losses. Every acronym. There's a couple of good ones. There's a couple. You know what they mean?

What do they all mean? EPA, that's environmental protection agency. Bingo. Yeah, that's true. That's how your offensive line does every single year. DVOA, that's where you get your license. Yes. Yeah.

Right? In some states, yep. Yeah. always a lot of not efficient at all so you don't want to be good at that one I don't think no actually the one down here not bad I went there last week it was very efficient yeah very good actually I would like to say

congratulations number one branch in the state I was just there as well in and out I legit do not doubt it no they got a fleet now they don't have questions they shouldn't have been asking but yeah I didn't take that driver's test like five times to get my Indiana license

stuff that's fucking suck like a written test like the one on the screen. Multiple choice. Like, yeah, you got to... Yeah, what are they asking you just to get your another license? How many feet before a red light are you starting to hit your bro? Yeah, what's this sign mean that I've never

seen? I haven't registered my car in three years, and they have questions about. How many feet are you two stop behind a stop sign? It's like three feet, six feet, one foot, ten feet. It's like, what? Interesting. I don't know, they pull up that fucking thing I've been doing for 20 fucking years. How about

whatever it takes not to get into an accident? Yeah. Yeah, STOP, I guess. Where's that off? I don't know. How many drinks? No, I'm kidding. How many beers have I had? Can't do that now.

What, I've had three, four beers and got behind the wheel. I'm just kidding. That's one of my favorite parts. Especially with Uber and... Waymo. Waymo. Waymo is crazy. I don't think they have them here.

Nope. They can't have them here. One of these fucking Hicks runs into one of those things. That car's getting torn on. One of these potholes would take out all. All of them. Yeah, you're right. I didn't even think about them.

D-D-D-D-D-Doo, bang. And then Bid-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D-D. And then B-Bu-D-D-Bang. That's actually at the end of that one show where they all the Tesla store. Oh, yeah. The movie, it came out, yes. It was on Apple, maybe. It was on Apple, Netflix.

Produced by the Obamas. I can't remember what the name of it was, though. Because the Obama's, President Obama and Michelle Obama, because they produced it, we all thought to ourselves, Oh. They know so. And then the Teslas were all just kind of wrong vibes. You remember this, AJ?

Do you remember this thing? Yeah, I didn't see the movie. I remember hearing all the hubbub. Leave the world behind? Leave the world behind. Yeah, that one freaked me out a little bit. Was it good? Yeah, I mean, it got me.

It wasn't bad. I watched it for a little bit. But it was kind of trippy on what they can do. You would assume somebody could do if they wanted to, just like we learned with the fucking cameras. Exactly. How about that age? I mean, that's scary.

Yeah. I mean, is it, yeah, I don't know. Is it worth saving one or two dogs to spy on the whole planet? Like, is it worse your privacy? Eight dogs a day, AJ. I don't know. Is it worth sopping the Joker to save Gotham City, AJ? I don't know.

That's right. I haven't seen that one either. I'm sorry. I don't know. Is that Heath Ledger? That was a crazy, yes. That was a crazy, rest and peace. That was a crazy ad.

Yeah. Like that angle. Because the amount of people that had to approve that. I would like say to the ad agencies. I'd like say to the ad agencies, let's pick it up, okay? You bumps. Yeah. Okay, you're a part of the fucking thing.

Have a brain, okay? You guys just cover your ass so much all year. You don't even know that people are expecting you to be good at your gigs whenever it comes to the Super Bowl of commercials. Let's go. You know, let's go ahead and do this thing. Let's make sure we are adding entertainment value and not just wasting a check from a company

that doesn't know that we don't know what the fuck we're doing. And we needed them last night. We did because the game was asked. Yeah. And what do we get? Oh, you guys are spine on our dogs. Exactly. That's crazy.

There wasn't one person at that table like, you think people are going to have a fucking problem with this? Or no? No, we're saving dogs. Shut the fuck up. Put a gold retriever up there. They love gold retrievers. I'm surprised.

Aren't we all? Yeah. Oh, wow. What wasn't in one of those? Yeah, Peter wasn't. Oh, wow. That would be the. Oh, yeah.

That would be the dog If I saw Peter on my TV last night It was getting broken What if it was a part of the ring We're watching you I mean if it was Every step in time Yeah with Ben

The original Yeah exactly Miss you Yes the original Of course Yes It's no creepy though Kind of

Yeah where's that guy at Is he out of gym? Yeah which version of the song was that Sting Oh Yeah sting Come on, dude. He's intercourse for like 12 hours of the time, he says.

What's that? You know that about Sting? That's his thing. He can, you know. Sting's thing. He can, he can, you know, go at it for 8, 9, 10, 12 hours. Tantric. You know that about Sting?

You said to me? You do. It's a thing. It's a, it's been Sting for a long time. I don't know. I did not know that. I did not. Believe it or not, I genuinely did not know that.

That's the fucking day. Everyone knows that. You know, Sting talks seven-hour tantic sex with Trudy Stiler. one person, one woman. That's his wife, yeah. That sting? I think he's talking in the interview of this person. Signars.

I get a tantric sect is a spiritual act. Oh, he's finding DMT in there. Oh, nice. Six, six hours in there. He's on his own journey. He's on his own journey. Good luck. Every step you take.

Stevers away. Yeah, he's changed. Was there any good commercials? Did you like any of them? B.A. Budweiser had a good one, I think. It was all right. B.A. was good.

B.A. was good. The throwback with all the characters from friends, maybe. I don't know what's cool. Yeah, that was good. Duncan, good. That goodwill Duncan. Duncan was good. The Bud Light one was, you know.

Shane picking them? Yeah. Good. Yeah. Good. Cool, whenever you see up there, you're like, oh, we know those people. Oh, they clearly wrote this, too. Mm-hmm.

Good for them. Cheese. Yeah. Yeah, exactly. Inspo. Yeah. Yeah. That was a good idea.

Yeah, great idea, good boy. Ben Affleck looking as young as he looked was crazy. Yeah, all of them. Yeah. The guy from Cheers as well. Is that AI, we think, or? Yes. So AI can make us young.

AI can't tell me what Bad Bunny's saying, though, whenever he's singing his songs right in front of me, and I'm trying to dance in this thing. That's where they draw the line. Interesting enough, I do believe there is a thing now with the AirPods, right, where it can translate, it can actively translate for you. Oh, my God, I should have plugged in you. Right.

I think there is. But whose voice is doing it? It's just some random guy not singing the music, the song, though? Yeah, probably. I wouldn't want it. You wouldn't want San Benito? I wouldn't want it. What about, did you watch, what was that Korean game show?

Square Games. Squibing. Did you have that dubbed? What did you have that dubbed? What did you? I had it dubbed into English. A lot of people were mad at me because he got rid of the incredible acting of the people that were speaking to language. Game shows I can do the dub.

If it's like a real series or like a good movie, I would rather hear. their voices and read the translation. So like, what was the thing on HBO Max? Japanese. The Russian. You're thinking of Chernobyl, that was good. No, you're thinking of Shoga. Yeah, Shogunab. Boom.

So, like, that show, I want to hear their voices. Did you, Chernobyl, did you watch that? No. Oh, that's so good. It was so dark, though. Yeah, very dark. Yeah, you have to watch that night. So I need facial expressions. I need to be able to...

So I'm captioning everything, though. Me too. I have captions on it. I just hate like seeing the mouth and like it been off. So like what was the big heist one that was on for a while? I think it was called heist, yeah. Boom. It was Spanish.

It was tough for me to really get into it. See, I dove it right into English and I just, I suspend reality. I just go, yep, they all stuff. Yep, not the best, I guess, voice never actors, but hey, we're doing it. I just need to know what's going on. You know, if I'm not paying attention, I'd like to hear what's going on. But captions, I think internet has turned me into that. I think internet has turned me into captions for everything type of stuff.

I'm not the biggest reader, but I found myself. I have captions on everything. It's so hard not to just read the captions. The whole time. That's my phone. Not even paying attention. I'm not watching. It makes you a better reader.

You need it. A lot of people go to their phones I've seen during last night's game. Mm-hmm. A lot of. No doubt. Jeez. There's so many three and us. Oh, he's done.

That was a really good show. Let me see what they got going on. Ball with the ball. This is what I'm talking about. Big, not of it. like four, five, six million concurrence. Yeah. That's a huge, that's a huge, huge, huge number on YouTube.

Turning, T, P.O. Don't want to get the name. T.P. USA. Turning point, USA. Okay. Guy, please. Come on. I'm just trying. Take it ease. Take it easy. I'm trying. I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying, I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying, I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying. I'm trying.

I'm trying. Godly. Godly. A lot going on out there. Sports. A lot going on. Sports. just trying to enjoy it, baby. All right. Let's do that. Let's get the hell out of here. AJ, great year this year, AJ.

Great year, fellas. It was awesome. Super Week was amazing. Honestly, I didn't know what to expect going into San Fran. Sanfran was awesome. Awesome hanging out with everybody. Yeah, I thoroughly enjoy myself. Shout to chef Michael, Mina, Adrian, and Vanessa at International Smoke.

It was a good time. They didn't even serve breakfast. They just made us a brunch every single day and opened their restaurant for us. Like, thank you so much. That was cool. I guess that's a Michelin's, he's a... He's a Michelin, man. Really?

I don't doubt it. I guess that's... Yeah. It was unbelievable. I had 30 pounds of eggs over the week. I probably had 85 scrambled eggs, maybe. Ty said San Frana is the most Michelin saw restaurants of any city in the country. In the U.S., I believe.

Yeah. I only saw one. Well, that's a couple times. That's more than most people are getting into those restaurants. Super Bowl week is next to impossible. Yeah, so shout out to Adrian. Shout to Chef Michael Mina. Shout out to Vanessa there for taking care of us.

But you're right. San Francisco for us was great, you know. It was cool to see everybody, too. We walked everywhere. everywhere, day, night, whatever. Yeah, the weather. AJ, please, okay, I opened up talking about it, but we did talk about at some point where people, you know,

were telling us that we are living some high society life in San Francisco and getting pampered, you know, potentially at some different points, you know, that was happening outside the city or maybe inside a radio road to get in and out if I have something to do or whatever. But we're in those streets. I mean, we were in those streets. Morning, very early morning, night, we were in the afternoon. We were walking.

A.J. Part of our journey. It was great. It was great. Yeah, we all had our own journey. We walked everywhere we went. Like, it didn't matter what time. We definitely saw some, a couple interesting characters, but, yeah, for the most part, it was all good.

Yeah, it was a city, you know, like that is a cleaner city than I've been in. I think that's a much cleaner city than I have been in. It was. There was certainly some parts that are city-like. There were some wet turds. We had to dodge, but, you know, that's a city. Yeah, Gertie stepped in human poop, like right off the back.

Are we blaming dirty for the awareness of the poop? or is he so focused on other things? A little bit of both, but it was more so how liquidy the poop was. It was so shocking. Probably some sort of soup dieters. Yeah. You got some guy who put that down on there. And ears.

He was a bad guy. Oh, boy. Bad guy. And ears. You're going to have those. You're going to have those. Few and far between. Yeah. I would say.

We did not expect that. Guy sleeping bagging in the middle of the intersection. Mm-hmm. Middle afternoon, screaming his ass off, saying terrible things. Yeah, that bad guy. AJ gives a speech to debutch Half block away from this guy

AJ Hawk eye literally About 10 o'clock up here I don't know if you see it 10 p.m. 1 o'clock Got a real piece of shit it's on it. And now what did you say basically, AJ? Well, when I saw a gentleman at Lewis just wearing a sleeping bag on his lower half

roaming around yelling at people from about 80 yards out, I told debunk my dad told me don't ever mess with somebody that has nothing to lose and we figured out out as we got closer yes that guy didn't have much to lose it seems like and he was certainly saying a lot of shit I appreciate your professionalism I don't know okay you know it is

it is what it is part of it that guy was on a journey he had a full Pantera a back tattoo he looks like he's been on the journey for a while yeah he's actually lost out there never coming back tease and peace he's gone tease and peace but there wasn't as many as that that I think no the expectation it was nice man

it was hey it was nice it was so nice that someone, someone that was kind of there, thought they might have been all paid actors. You know what? Who said that? It's a good point.

I need those. Everybody in the city? Everybody in the city? It's too nice. What the hell is going on? It could be. I was told. Three seconds, hey, all right.

Me and Dee Butt, me and Dee Butt, we were told by a person that we encountered in San Francisco that was walking with us for a portion of our journey. Once again, we were walking a lot of places.

Met up with a lot of people while we're walking, where you're headed, we're headed this way. I go, see it's nice, don't you think? First time seeing the person. It's all bullshit. I saw your little tweet thing. I'm like, what? What's that?

Saw you talk about how nice this is. I'm like, what's not nice about this? Like, literally we're like, what's not nice about this? And the answer was, you think this is real? Yeah. I think so. Like we are, this is real. They street sweep this thing.

It's the nicest this city has looked. It's like, cool. So, hey, I'm here. I want to let them. though they did it great and I was like but it's very active you know so if it was just like for today would all these people seemingly have these routines of jogging and walking and running and dog and everything feels like these people are pretty comfortable with like what they're doing or whatever he goes all actors I'm like what what this whole city is actors you go yeah just around

you fucking and you fell for it immediately you fucking one out there this is act this is nice fucking they're setting you up mark like that that's one what we were told we lost it i i mean i laughed maybe maybe three minutes straight whenever i i fucking lost it and it's like well if that's the case they did a great job he did yeah they got us they got us yeah who was an unbelievable time out there we appreciate debuk great season everything d b good d bad d monday morning dc phenomenal workout you thank you for traveling so much no problem bro thank you love being here yeah you travels yeah he does because that shit's Way down there.

Hammer. Don. Don. What? That was Tony. That was Tony. He does that to the Don sometimes. What I do?

Well, he thinks it's maybe become a mockery. Yeah, a gimmick, yeah. So he's trying to ruin it so we don't do it anymore. Yep. Just now that we'll never stop with Hammer. Don. Okay, great year out of you, Bub. you. How about you ending with a 3-1 record on Tone's plays other day?

Not bad. That's pretty good way to head in there. Oh, yeah, it would have been 4-0 if the Seahawks didn't, you know, just dominate and they didn't need to throw the ball at the end at all. Why? Because you picked Sam? Yeah, to go over. Two-hunch? 220 or something like that. Oh, damn. I mean, J.S. and going down, too. What happened with him?

Yeah, a concussion and an ankle and... He had tape on his foot or some shit. Yeah. The back of his ankle was being taped, and then he went in there, and then he said, concussion people were looking at him. It's like, ooh, I don't like to hear that at all. but turns out, Sanse York's the Western Bowl. Great work, Tom, great college football season as well out of you.

Appreciate that. You crushed it. You, yeah, yeah. Talk stable, boys. What can I say? Both your teams were in it. Biggest trade. Yeah.

Of the entire season. Yeah. You represented it to a lot of people, let alone the pick at the draft. And then Yukon, man, a resurgence of a team, having to take it in the shins by a lot of people as the mass hole on a microphone.

You guys at Talk Stable should be incredibly proud of this season. Yeah, you too, man. Appreciate it. Good work, boys. In the back, hey, I think you guys got better this year. I think it was, like, evident. Don't you think Foxy? Yeah, I agree.

Good season, boys. Graphic design, boys. Go work, boys. Artists. Yeah. Yeah. How about Mitt picking up a new job last week? Hell yeah. He's really good at it.

Pickle ball. She's good. Fuck yeah. So good. Like best. She's saying best ever. And she brought like eight paddles for everybody? Think we should probably get her up there.

Thank you. All of that. All cast. Yeah. A bunch of Allcasts, Game Day to the Allcast. Yeah, those are pretty crazy times. Yeah. The game day down, walking through the stands with like, you know, five seconds to go to air to the

allcast. That's the best thing. Nobody else is doing that. Those are good times there. I saw Tariko last night go from game to Olympic show on field. I thought that was sick. I really appreciate that.

You know, you've seen a couple quick turnovers. The running by from hosting to... Routledge. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Those moments are cool because in the brain while you're doing it, it's like, okay, nothing matters that I just did at all.

Like literally nothing matters at all. So there's not even a moment of like, hey, that was a fun show. Yeah. That was a fun show. Hey, when you said this, that was really cool or whatever. Then it's just like immediately like, nope, does not matter. We got to move forward. Those are fun times. Lucky and thankful to get the prep for him too, though.

Yeah. The music as well. Sick. Yeah. That's crazy. That's crazy that that's happened. You're out. I guess Ari, you know, he let the cat out of the bag.

He did. He did. Awesome. Dosa King. Wow. Thank you, Ty. Thank you, Ty. And you're running the entire business.

Yeah, it's pretty fun, man. It's a, it was a fun. And you gave away a lot of money this year. Well, we don't need to keep doing that. Yeah, agreed. Especially if you go all the way back to Big Night Out included. It was a lot of money.

Maybe Gosson next year. What's that? Yeah, to throw. Yeah. Yeah, fate of the universe. I like that. I like the way we're talking here. I mean,

God will get it done. Yeah. Put him outside the arena. I have him throw it all the way. Maybe we could do it at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Open up the tall. Oh, there we go. Throw it through.

He's got a regime. self has to no it was crazy though Australia was when August 15th right into Texas Ohio State College game day yeah oh it's been a fucking hell of a run oh yeah it's been a lot of fun and we're incredibly lucky that we get to do it enjoy the week off weeks off we'll be back at the combine yeah for as long as you'll have us we'll do this for the good of ball for the good of sports it's the greatest thing on earth it's the greatest thing that's ever been created it's been going on since the beginning of time. There's been this yearn for competition. There's been this yearn to watch others

compete. And I think it's something that, you know, can break down a lot of barriers. I think it can break down a lot of hate, a lot of negativity. And I think sports will continue to be the greatest thing of all time because it makes motherfuckers feel alive. We'll be back in a couple weeks covering the greatest thing on earth. Be a friend, tell a friend something nice. It might change their life. We're in this thing together. And remember, let's not just hate people for out of context stuff. Hey, we're done with it. Yeah.
